You can conduct IME's while also doing impartial medical exams for the DIA. But the Department needs to know what IME organizations you work for so you can avoid conflicts. In order for your impartial report to be useful it must be free of any bias or appearance of bias. You may not conduct an impartial exam in a place where IMEs are done. You may not do an IME, and an impartial exam, on the same person. When you inform the Impartial Unit of a possible conflict, we notify the judge. If the judge reports the parties have no objection after considering the possible conflict, you keep the case. Otherwise, the Impartial Unit assigns it to another Impartial Physician, and assigns you the next.
