Independent Medical Examinations (IMEs)
Independent medical examinations are performed by credentialed physicians, instead of the treating provider, to establish an informed expert opinion on the validity and nature of a diagnosis. In preparation, all medical records are collected and questions prepared for the physician examiner to ensure all the relevant issues are addressed. Final reports are quality assured, tailored to meet state-specific and turn around time requirements, and available on ExamWorks' or respective client portal. In the event of arbitration or litigation, expert testimony, a specialty among our credentialed physicians, provides an informed evidence-based opinion about the questions in the case.
Peer Reviews
Peer Reviews are paper-based evaluations prepared by credentialed physicians to provide an informed expert opinion about the appropriateness of care, medical necessity and related issues. The review type, prospective, current, retrospective, medical-legal, or appeal, is specified by the client, including whether physician peer or nurse to physician discussions are required. All medical records are collected, and questions prepared for the physician reviewer. Final reports are quality assured, tailored to meet state-specific content and turn around time requirements and available on ExamWorks' or respective client portal.
