Independent medical evaluations and file reviews are objective, medically-informed assessments that enable clients to facilitate claims negotiations, settle claims disputes, and determine causality or current and future care needs depending on the claim type.
Our service professionals are well versed with respect to regulatory guidelines, policy requirements, and legislative frameworks associated with the various clients and jurisdictions served, including the SABS and the AMA Guides to the Evaluation of Permanent Impairment.
