Medicolegal Services
If you’re a case manager or an attorney with an individual who is suffering from an injury or physical limitation, his or her case is dependent on a thorough diagnosis. What are the specific physiological causes of the pain? What is the true scope of the injury or impairment? What are the long-term implications for your client’s total health? How much function will your client regain? What are the long-term care needs of the individual? Dr. Eric R. Beck has the unique training, experience and diagnostic capabilities to help answer these questions.
Tools and techniques.
Dr. Beck is a triple-board-certified physical medicine and rehabilitation specialist whose medicolegal services include functional capacity evaluations (FCEs), independent medical examinations (IMEs), chart reviews and expert testimony. Dr. Beck has a special interest in neurologic illness and injury, catastrophic injuries and their long-term impact on function and care. He is an expert at providing accurate diagnoses, reliable data and detailed reports of these conditions. IMEs and FCEs shed light on any discrepancies between an individual’s ability to meet the demands of occupational work or activities of daily living.
Complete and efficient care.
Dr. Beck will conduct a comprehensive IME or FCE to provide an objective, computerized and legally defensible determination of functional capability and impairment. This information will be presented in a timely manner to you, as well as to physicians, employers and insurance adjustors. The results of an individual’s IME or FCE may indicate the need for further medical treatment, physical or occupational therapy, industrial rehabilitation, specialized vocational services or retraining. This information helps calculate healthcare costs and the impact on your client’s income potential.
An unbiased treatment analysis is important to you. And a complete, accurate diagnosis is crucial to an individual’s case. By sending your client to Dr. Beck, you are ensuring both. He has over 13 years of clinical experience and is trusted by many area physicians for their patients.
