Unfortunately, trying to find out if an employee on worker’s comp is really not hurt takes a lot of time and money most employers don’t have. Utilizing IME services for employers provided by our independent medical examination company takes much less time, much less money and offers solid evidence of malingering for court purposes.
When an Employer Needs an IME
IMEs are required when insurance companies processing worker’s comp claims must have one to determine the claim’s status. Employees are mandated to attend an IME if asked, or they risk invalidating their claim. In addition, employers can request medical information from non-IME physicians caring for employees who have been hurt on the job. This is to ensure the employee’s injury is genuine and will impact their attendance.
Employers do not have to accept vague doctor’s notes from employees who claim they have been sickened or injured due to work-related elements. Notes that say “he cannot work for medical reasons” or “she is off work for 10 days” are legally insufficient. Additionally, employers can also question notes written by non-IME doctors stating the employee should be on “restricted duty.” Even medical certificates containing details about an employee’s physical or mental health, their prognosis and return to work information can be questioned by employers who doubt the validity of a worker’s comp claim.
