What is a Division Independent Medical Examination (DIME)?
A DIME is requested if there is a dispute between the injured worker and the insurance carrier concerning the maximum medical improvement date (MMI) and/or the impairment rating. A DIME aims to resolve disputes without going to court. A DIME can be requested by the injured worker or the insurance carrier.
