What Is An Independent Medical Exam?

Claimants may choose to have an independent medical evaluation by Nurse Practitioner or Physician to support their disability claim. During the visit, a disability benefits questionnaire is completed. Subsequently, the claimant may submit this questionnaire and other records for consideration as part of the disability determination.

What Is Needed To Complete The Exam?

A copy of available medical evidence is needed to complete the exam. Records may be obtained from primary and specialty care providers. Copies of military records are also useful.
