## A Markham disability file turns on one definition change

Many disability plans switch from own-occupation to any-occupation partway through a claim. Own-occupation asks about their own job; any-occupation asks about any job they suit.

- No definition named in the referral.
- Specialist notes span years, unordered.

## What IMECore does about it

### The definition in force is marked

Own- or any-occupation shows on the case from intake.

### A timeline before the visit

Treating records arrive ordered by date, gaps flagged.

## How it runs

1. **Send the referral.** Forward the questions, the regime, and the due date.
2. **We set the regime.** SABS, WSIB, LTD, or tort is marked on the case.
3. **Records land on the case.** Notes, imaging, and priors attach with source.
4. **Review and release.** Release waits until every question is answered.

## Questions people ask

### Do you have an office in Markham?

No. IMECore leases no examining rooms in Markham. Visits are arranged through our examiner network and confirmed when you refer.

### What is the difference between own-occupation and any-occupation?

Own job versus any job they suit. Name the one in force on the referral.

### Is a file review ever enough?

When the paper record holds the answers, a file review needs no visit.
