We help with all of your needs concerning the appointment scheduling and general customer service support.

Q. I received notice about a doctor's appointment what is it about?

A. More than likely, you have a claim pending; this may be due to an automobile accident, workplace injury or disability claim. The insurance company that is covering your claim would like to have you examined by an independent consultant.

Q. Do I have to attend the exam? What will happen if I do not go?

A. Regardless of the type of insurance the injury falls under, the policy may stipulate and mandate attendance to the exam. It is up to the insurance company to determine the action, however, failure to attend could result in a loss of your benefits.

Q. Will I receive treatment when I go the exam?

A. No, the independent doctor or licensed consultant will only perform a non-invasive evaluation. You will be asked to fill out a history form and discuss your condition and or accident with the doctor or licensed consultant. Photo ID will be verified.

Q. Who will pay for time I miss from work? How will I get to the exam location?
