Medicolegal Opinions

Your dedicated partner in medicolegal reporting and expert medical opinions

LexiMed is one of Australasia’s premier medicolegal reporting companies, with a proven track record in providing robust, objective and timely medicolegal opinions.

Independent Medical Examinations (IME)

Our doctors conduct thorough, Independent Medical Examinations to provide objective opinions on injuries, illnesses and medical conditions. These assessments give lawyers and insurers the clarity they need when handling claims and disputes.

Total and Permanent Incapacity (TPI)

We deliver independent assessments for Total and Permanent Incapacity claims. These reports determine if an individual is permanently unable to work in their usual occupation, supporting legal teams and insurers in making informed decisions.

Impairment Reports

Our impairment assessments provide a clear conclusion on the level of permanent impairment following an injury or illness. These reports are commonly used to finalise claims and determine entitlements, including lump sum payouts.

Fitness for Duty

LexiMed doctors assess whether an individual can safely return to work and perform their duties. These reports assist employers, insurers and legal teams in understanding the impact of an injury on workplace capacity and team operations.

Expert Advisory Services

Sometimes only brief guidance is required. Our doctors are available for short advisory discussions, typically lasting five to ten minutes, to provide direction on medical questions that arise during a case.

File Reviews

Our doctors can conduct detailed file reviews. By analysing existing medical records, we prepare professional reports that support cases such as medical negligence claims or complex disputes.

Medicolegal Workshops

We can facilitate medicolegal education seminars within your workplace. Our seminars will give you and your staff a better understanding of potential workplace injuries and common workers’ compensation claims. We can also demonstrate the benefits of the medicolegal reporting process.

Catastrophic Injuries

When the patient cannot travel due to catastrophic injuries contact us directly to discuss an assessment at home.

Supplementary Reports

Request a supplementary report when additional information and further questions are required after reading the independent medical report.
