## 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.

## What IMECore does about it

### The file crosses first

Records are assembled before any visit is set.

### Travel quoted per file

Travel for an in-person examiner is arranged and quoted per file.

## How it runs

1. **Send the referral.** The referral letter, the questions, and the due date open the case.
2. **Set the setting.** In-person or video is confirmed before anything is booked.
3. **Build the file.** Treating records and imaging arrive with source and date attached.
4. **Answer every question.** The report releases when each referral question has an answer.
