What is a QME?
QME stands for Qualified Medical Evaluator. A QME is a physician who will evaluate your case when it isn’t clear which Workers’ Comp benefits you are entitled to. The role of a QME is to examine you, evaluate you, and write a medical report about your case. The advantage of QMEs is that they are to remain impartial when assessing your injury and then offer a neutral opinion on the case.
