What is a Independent Medical Examination (IME)?

Impartial medical evaluations conducted by qualified specialists
An Independent Medical Examination (IME) is a comprehensive, third-party medical assessment performed by an experienced physician who is not involved in the individual’s care. IMEs are used to evaluate medical conditions, treatment history, functional status, and causation to provide an unbiased clinical opinion.
These evaluations support clear, evidence-based decisions while maintaining objectivity, confidentiality, and professional integrity.
