Sacramento QME: Occupational Medicine

Qualified Medical Evaluators (QME) for Occupational Medicine specialize in evaluating injured workers in Sacramento workers’ compensation cases. If you received a panel list of Occupational Medicine physicians, you likely have some suitable options. When selecting a Sacramento area Occupational Medicine physician for your medical evaluation, it’s essential to choose carefully.

Sacramento Qualified Medical Evaluators (QME): Occupational MedicineOccupational Medicine physicians have clinical expertise in a wide variety of disciplines. These include:

  • Ergonomics (fitting the job to a person)
  • Musculoskeletal injuries (back, neck, and extremities)
  • Lung and pulmonary problems
  • Work-related cancers
  • Infectious diseases
  • Toxicology

Occupational physicians’ scope of practice can be diverse, so it’s important to choose a Qualified Medical Examiner (QME) who specializes in your specific injury. Don’t just choose a QME based on their name, availability, hospital affiliation, address, or medical group; instead, select one based on whether they will write a fair and unbiased report about your injuries.

While it’s a great idea to check out review websites like Yelp and Google, or the Better Business Bureau (BBB), these sites usually focus on how the doctor treats or the office customer service. These are great opinions to remember, but the most crucial factor is receiving a fair and unbiased report from the Qualified Medical Evaluator.

Opinions or votes should never be the final factor in the decision but rather just part of the decision-making process. They are always at risk of being influenced by subjective feelings that may not always be accurate. The American College of Occupational and Environmental Medicine website is great for learning more about Occupational Medicine doctors. Also, we have created a list to help you make your decision. If you have questions about your workers’ compensation case, please get in touch with one of the workers’ compensation attorneys at Eason & Tambornini, ALC.
