Solutions
Six people touch an IME. None of them work the same way.
Pick the team you are on, or the kind of claim you are running. Both routes end at the same case file.
By team
Who you are
Every role sees the case, and each sees the part of it that is their job.

By claim type
What kind of file
The claim type sets the questions, the record set, and the deadline.
- Claim type
Auto and accident benefits
Ontario SABS and BC ICBC files stall when records and the examination live in different places.
Read - Claim type
Long-term disability
An LTD examination has to test job demands and duration. A diagnosis recap does not close the claim.
Read - Claim type
Workers' compensation
WSIB and WorkSafeBC files need work-relatedness and restrictions the claim file can hold, not a generic diagnosis.
Read - Claim type
Med-legal and litigation
Plaintiff and defence IMEs fail when you cannot prove what the examiner had, and when.
Read - Claim type
File review, no exam
A file review has no examination, so every gap in the records becomes a gap in the opinion.
Read - Claim type
Addendum and rebuttal
An addendum inherits the case. A rebuttal answers the other expert. Both need a short clock.
Read - Claim type
Catastrophic impairment
Ontario CAT files turn on specific SABS tests. Thickness of the record set is not one of them.
