Workers Compensation Doctor – Denver Workers Comp Attorneys Explain DIME

In Colorado, a DIME- Division Independent Medical Examination allows you to request a medical evaluation independent of the doctor that the insurance company requests- it’s like a second opinion that lets you get a new evaluation with a higher quality, less biased, and better doctor, that can potentially get you better treatment and more benefits.

When it comes to a DIME, selecting the doctor happens by process of elimination. The state of Colorado offers a list of 3 doctors: you are allowed to cross one off the list, the insurance company is allowed to cross another off the list, and the remaining doctor is the doctor who provides the independent medical exam. Insurance companies often have doctors working on their side, who tend to side with the insurance company. We have years of experience behind us, in which we know which doctors can help and which doctors are not as good for you or for your worker’s compensation case.
