You can’t legislate a better QME report. Increasing hours,online ‘anti bias”whatever that means won’t do it. Young docs want to be doctors not report writers. All our QMEs our aging. Making it more difficult to be one won’t help. Substantial medical evidence is a vague concept for doctors. Medical evidence such as records profiling, statements from coworkers etc,can be evidence of causation if provided. You must want to be a detective to get there. I see too many reports in which causation is assumed if there is no prior injury,etc. apportionment is difficult in many cases. Only time and experience will produce a rateable report and you can’t teach that. Help the existing evaluators by getting us records early and provide cover letters to guide us. Thanks for the raise, but other help is needed
