Scar Evaluations

    Request Sample Report

    An independent medical examination (IME) occurs when a doctor who has not previously been involved in a person’s care examines the individual. There is no doctor patient relationship. However, individuals can request their own evaluation and continue with treatment if desired.

    Plastic Surgical IME’s may be conducted to substantiate the cause of the injuries, the extent of the injuries and the resultant permanent deformities. In addition to that, recommendations for possible plastic surgical reconstruction would be determined along with the cost for such including associated costs for healthcare facilities and anesthesia. Included in the evaluation would be an evaluation of the medical records and photographs. A summary would outline the permanency of injuries, whether any permanent impairment remains after treatment, the associated deformities as a result of the scarring, and the continuing need for treatments as deemed appropriate. An IME may be conducted at the behest of an employer, an insurance carrier, attorney or individual to obtain an independent opinion of the clinical status of the individual and whether and individual has reached maximum benefit from treatment.
