The DWC has known of the pernicious problem of stereotyping and bias in the medical legal evaluations for years and is now taking definite steps to address, and wipe out the problem. Stereotyping and bias by QMEs lead to inaccurate benefits for injured workers who so desperately need and depend on benefits.
Bias, stereotyping, and discrimination in the medical legal evaluation has the unintended consequence of opinions and conclusions by the QME that are NOT accurate. In other words, the opinions and conclusions of the QME - when influenced by implicit and unconscious bias - are INACCURATE. Because ACCURACY in workers compensation is King, the DWC has a plan to eliminate the pernicious impact of bias on the QME's opinions and conclusions.
