Join Andrew Iacobelli as he uncovers the truth behind insurance medical examinations. In this episode, you’ll learn why these so-called “independent” assessments are far from impartial. Insurance companies are meticulous when it comes to selecting doctors to evaluate accident victims. Their primary objective is to minimize payouts and pay as little as possible for your injury or claim. Discover the tactics insurance companies employ to defeat or deny claims.
Learn about the importance of legal advice when attending these mandatory examinations. It’s crucial to be honest when discussing your injuries and pre-existing health conditions with doctors. Regular treatment with your healthcare providers on a consistent basis will help strengthen your case when your file is put under the microscope in court.
Andrew will also discuss common surveillance tactics used by insurance companies. Insurance companies will often employ surveillance in personal injury cases to detect inconsistencies in claimants' behavior, looking for evidence that may contradict the severity of their injuries or impairments.

Excellent explanation, I am a IME Nurse Observer, I prepare the clients and go with them to the exam. For some reason having a nurse during the exam encourages the examiner to be unbiased.

I went for an IME, I was very honest with the Dr. some of the medical issues I told him wasn’t in the report he sent to my representative, besides, the IME exam last less than 5 min.
