AMA Impairment Assessments
Accredited and precise evaluation of Whole Person Impairment (WPI) for spinal, cranial, and peripheral nerve conditions.
Accredited Impairment Evaluation
Dr Aliashkevich is fully trained and accredited in the use of the American Medical Association (AMA) Guides to the Evaluation of Permanent Impairment (both 4th and 5th Editions, as required by varying jurisdictions).
These assessments are critical for quantifying permanent disability following Maximum Medical Improvement (MMI). Our reports provide clear, mathematically rigorous impairment ratings that withstand legal and tribunal scrutiny.
Assessment Frameworks
- AMA 4th Edition: Commonly required for Victorian WorkCover and TAC claims. Assessment includes DRE (Diagnosis-Related Estimates) for spinal injuries and specific neurological impairment chapters.
- AMA 5th Edition: Utilised in various other state jurisdictions and specific Commonwealth frameworks. Includes ROM (Range of Motion) models and advanced neurological rating systems.
- Combination of Impairments: Expert calculation using the Combined Values Chart for complex multi-system injuries.
