Independent Medical Examinations and Reports: Guidelines and Fees Order
The guidelines set out WorkCover’s policy in respect of independent medical examinations as well as the mandatory obligations for employers/insurers when referring a worker for a medical. They also provide guidance for all parties, including referrers, examining medical practitioners, and injured workers.
These guidelines commence on 1 November 2006. The previous Guidelines on Independent Medical Examinations and Reports, published in the NSW Government Gazette on 16 March 2005, are revoked.
