Independent medical assessments in Prince Edward Island

In-person assessments in Prince Edward Island communities are arranged through our examiner network and confirmed when you refer. Video assessments are available across the province.
The problem
An Island referral leaves the Island before its records do
Workers and examiners cross the bridge while treating notes stay in Island clinics. The visit is set before the record makes the same trip, and the examiner answers from part of the file.
- Clinic notes arrive after the mainland visit is booked.
- WCB and auto questions share one desk with different rules.
