The Compliance Shield: Why Diagnostic Proof is the New Gold Standard

To qualify for a claim in the 2026 Ozempic (Semaglutide) MDL, the court now requires specific medical evidence to distinguish drug-induced injuries from pre-existing conditions.

Use this checklist to determine if a potential claimant meets the February 2026 court standards for Gastroparesis or NAION.

Section 1: Gastroparesis (Stomach Paralysis) Checklist

Per Judge Marston’s 2025/2026 rulings, clinical observation of symptoms is no longer sufficient.

• [ ] Confirmed Usage: Proof of brand-name Ozempic, Wegovy, or Rybelsus (prescriptions or pharmacy records).
• [ ] The “Gold Standard” Test: Do you have results from a Gastric Emptying Scintigraphy (GES)?
  • Note: This is the 4-hour nuclear medicine test where you eat a meal (usually eggs) tagged with a tracer.
• [ ] Alternative Valid Tests: If no GES, do you have results from a Wireless Motility Capsule (SmartPill) or a 13C-Spirulina Breath Test?
• [ ] Severity Marker: Was the claimant hospitalized or seen in the Emergency Room for persistent vomiting or malnutrition?
• [ ] Temporal Link: Did the diagnosis occur while actively taking the drug or within 30 days of the last dose?
• [ ] Exclusions: Ensure the symptoms are not caused by an active bowel obstruction (Ileus) or recent abdominal surgery.

Section 2: NAION (Vision Loss) Checklist

Claims for “Eye Strokes” are handled under the newly formed MDL 3163.

• [ ] Specialist Diagnosis: Was the NAION diagnosed specifically by an Ophthalmologist or Neuro-Ophthalmologist?
• [ ] Symptom Documentation: Do medical records note sudden, painless vision loss (often upon waking)?
• [ ] Objective Findings: Does the record confirm Optic Disc Edema (swelling) or a “pale” optic nerve?
• [ ] Visual Field Test: Is there a “Humphrey Visual Field” report showing a loss of peripheral or central vision?
• [ ] Exclusion of Mimics: Have other causes like Giant Cell Arteritis or Optic Neuritis been ruled out by the physician?

Section 3: Legal Quality Indicators (Mohr Marketing Standards)

• [ ] 1-to-1 Consent: Does the claimant have a TrustedForm or Jornaya certificate proving they explicitly chose your firm?
• [ ] Identity Verified: Has the claimant passed a banking-grade ID check (e.g., IDology) to prevent bot fraud?
• [ ] Scammer Scrub™: Has the claimant’s phone/email been scrubbed against the National DNC list and known “serial litigator” databases?
