    An independent medical exam neutral assumption trips up a lot of claimants. The insurer picks the doctor, pays the doctor, and often sends that doctor the same claimants over and over. None of that makes the exam illegal or improper. It does mean “independent” describes the doctor’s relationship to your own treating physician, not their…
