- Reduce CO2 emissions; and

Most of us have never heard of independent medical examinations. We might need to know a little more about them.
An independent medical examination (IME) is an exam performed when there is litigation related to a sick or injured person’s medical condition that requires more than the opinion of the treating physician. A doctor is hired – or, if necessary, a few doctors with different specialties – to give an unbiased opinion.
New Mexico workers’ compensation has an unusual system for IMEs. If the parties can’t agree to an IME Read More
