with active California licenses with experience in the California Independent Medical Review (IMR) process. IMR serves as a binding appeals process for disputes arising from the denial or modification of workers’ compensation treatment requests. Since July 1, 2013, all medical treatment disputes—regardless of the date of injury—are resolved through IMR rather than the traditional court system, streamlining the process significantly.

In California’s workers’ compensation system, all treatment requests undergo utilization review (UR) to determine medical necessity. If a request is denied, delayed, or modified due to lack of medical necessity, the injured worker has the right to appeal the decision through IMR. This review is conducted by physicians who assess the case using evidence-based guidelines.

IMR physicians must be experts in the Medical Treatment Utilization Schedule (MTUS), Official Disability Guidelines (ODG), and medicolegal writing, as they are responsible for evaluating medical necessity based on established standards and clearly articulating their rationale in written determinations.
