Workers' Compensation IME Exams

An IME stands for Independent Medical Exam. The insurance company arranges and pays for a doctor of their choosing to perform an examination and prepare a report in relation to your workers' compensation case. This doctor is examining you on behalf of the insurance company.
There a few scenarios as to when the insurance company requests this opportunity which we go over with you in this video and you do have certain rights we would like you to be aware of.
It is important you are truthful on the questionnaire concerning your physical condition. You should not answer questions regarding your ability to look for work or perform work. You should limit your answers to your ability to perform certain physical functions.
Call your managing attorney or legal assistant with any questions. Thank you for trusting us to represent you in your workers' compensation case.

I’m going for a 2nd IME , my 1st was right after I filed a claim in Jan 22.. I haven’t got any benefits from the start and I had rotator cuff surgery on 2/1/23… I don’t understand why I’m having to go for another exam ..
