Independent Medical Examination Companies Working Nationwide

January 18, 2024 by Cardinal LifeCare Consulting

independent medical examination companiesWhen an individual sustains a serious injury, they may seek compensation to cover their medical care, missed wages and other losses. In such cases, independent medical examination companies may be consulted to provide an impartial assessment of the person’s injuries and the resulting impacts on their capacity to perform their occupation. 

At Cardinal LifeCare, we recognize the critical role that an independent medical exam can play in a personal injury case. We match legal teams across the country with independent observers who may assist on either side of litigation, along with life care planners and expert witnesses.

Independent Medical Examination Companies Working Nationwide

Completed by a third-party physician deemed to have relevant qualifications and no prior relationship with the examinee, an independent medical evaluation will typically include:

  • Review of the individual’s medical records
  • Assessment of the type and severity of symptoms stemming from their injury or disability
  • Evaluation of the person’s ability to continue carrying out their role in light of their condition

Following this objective evaluation, the examiner will write up a thorough report of their observations and findings. This documentation may then be provided to the party who requested the exam or presented in court.

In some cases, a vocational evaluation may also be appropriate in a case involving a disabled person. This review can help to show the link between a claimant’s injury and their subsequent employability level; substantiate their demand amount; establish the overall value of the case; and provide clear supporting evidence to the jury.
