Occupational and Environmental Medicine Specialists at IOMC are the ultimate experts for assessing the claimants of motor vehicle accidents injuries, especially when they do not recover in 90 days. The assessors of these claimants are legally required to use the Biopsychosocial Model for assessment under the Minor Injury Regulation. However, due to lack of formal training in disability prevention and management, most assessors incorrectly use the traditional Medical Model. This therapeutic practice prolongs recovery and further reinforces the sick role.

Occupational and Environmental Medicine Specialists at IOMC provide a coherent view of biological (body and mind), psychosocial (personal/relationships), and occupational (social) aspects of health using the required assessment model. They identify the specific causes of delayed recovery (>90 days), which are critical in achieving the well-being of claimants and re-establishing their health and functions.
