Independent Medical Examination
An Independent Medical Examination (IME) pairs a complete record review with a hands-on physical examination of the claimant by a specialty-matched physician — producing an objective assessment of the injury, impairment, and need for ongoing treatment.
What Independent Medical Examination Delivers
When a paper review is not enough, an IME puts a specialty-matched physician face to face with the claimant. The physician evaluates the current condition, tests the claimed limitations, and reconciles the examination findings against the documented history.
The result is an objective, well-supported opinion — stated neutrally, without prediction of outcome — that helps you evaluate the true extent of impairment and the necessity of treatment.
