An Independent Psychiatry Evaluation is a mental health evaluation by a medical physician specializing in Psychiatry. It involves a detailed and comprehensive evaluation, largely in the form of an interview (rather than psychometric testing}, which will provide comprehensive information on the psychiatric status of the claimant with respect to the accident-related impairment, pre-existing psychiatric conditions, if any, and prognosis for recovery from any identified impairment or disability. This evaluation also aims to determine whether observational data corresponds with subjectively reported complaints, and provides a diagnosis if one is implicated. Our independent psychiatric evaluator will produce a report that will indicate whether there is objective evidence of psychological/psychiatric illness as a result of the incident in question, which may constitute impairment and if so, comment on the reasonableness and necessity of psychoactive medications that may have been prescribed to the claimant for recovery from their injuries as well as other medications treating physician(s) may wish to consider.
