    Journal: Occup Med; 1997; 12(3):525-56. PubMed ID: 9298498.
    Abstract:
    Independent medical examinations (IMEs) are requested most commonly for conditions related to musculoskeletal problems. This chapter thoroughly delineates the IME process, illustrating points with universal applicability, but focusing on assessment of musculoskeletal disease. The functional capacity evaluation, for determination of task performance ability, also is addressed.
