IMECore arranges IMEs and file reviews for southern Alberta auto and workplace files.
In-person assessments in Lethbridge are arranged through our examiner network and confirmed when you refer. Video assessments are available across Alberta.
The problem
A southern Alberta file stalls while clinic releases lag
Lethbridge treating records come from smaller clinics with slower releases. Booking before the record is whole means a deferred opinion and a second visit.
- Clinic releases lag behind the booking date.
- A deferred opinion forces a second examination.
