Independent medical examiners (IMEs)
Our IMEs are designed to give you the clinical insight and evidentiary confidence you need.
When to use an IME
An IME’s objective is to provide an impartial evaluation as a medical specialist, independent of your treating doctor or any involved parties. This ensures the assessment is fair, unbiased, in depth and based solely on medical evidence. The results are invaluable in resolving disputes.
- Clarifying medical causation in liability disputes
- Assessing capacity for work or rehabilitation
- Validating treatment necessity or outcomes
- Evaluating permanent impairment
- Strengthening case files for court proceedings or settlements
