If you do not agree with the AME findings, you should?

• A. Maximize Employer's Recovery
• B. Accept the AME Findings
• C. Ignore the AME Findings
• D. File a Lawsuit Against the AME

Answer: (A)

When you disagree with AME findings, the goal is to protect the employer’s financial position by pursuing the proper routes to challenge or refine the determination and to maximize recovery. In a California Self‑Insurance Plan, there are mechanisms to obtain a second opinion, request another evaluator, or move through the plan’s dispute resolution process. These steps are taken to produce a more favorable outcome for the employer, rather than simply accepting, ignoring, or suing the AME. So the best action is to actively pursue the processes available to revise or overturn the findings in a way that increases the employer’s recovery.
