Crawford Streamlines IME Services

December 9, 2002

Atlanta-based Crawford & Company announced its newly streamlined Independent Medical Examination (IME) Services division give clients objective, independent, and comprehensive examinations in multiple business lines including workers’ compensation, auto liability, group health, long- and short-term disability, and general liability.

The service is focused on obtaining results that address specific client needs such as diagnosis relationships, disability or permanent impairment identification, and treatment recommendations.

“The truly remarkable component of our IME Services is that Crawford manages the entire process,” remarked Vicki Holland, executive vice president, Healthcare Management Services. “From a nurse’s initial review of the IME request, to the final review of the IME report for completeness, Crawford takes care of everything. We do this without ever losing sight of each client’s individual needs and objectives.”

A longtime leader in providing IMEs that produce timely claims resolutions, Crawford delivers the service from 14 regional centers staffed by knowledgeable professionals who hand pick healthcare practitioners and coordinate each examination for the company’s clients.
