CalChiro will be presenting a QME Certification Program which will prepare you to sit for the April 2024 Division of Workers’ Compensation examination.
WHY SHOULD YOU BE A QME?
DCs have been valued participants in the work comp QME system since the inception of the QME system more than 20 years ago. In fact, the outline for the training doctors must take was based on the old CCA Independent Disability Evaluator Course.
Until now, DCs had to take 44 hours of in-person classwork to qualify to sit for the exam, but through the efforts of CalChiro, that requirement is set to change to 13 hours face to face (in-person) and 12 hours of online coursework. So you only need to spend one weekend at a hotel.
Need QME recertification hours? Current QMEs can take this course and earn up to 12-hours. Contact Shasta Carey at scarey@calchiro.org for more information.
