Chapter 3

Independent medical examination

[ch 3: page 43]

If your employer does not believe that you are sick (even if you have evidence from your doctor), you may need to go for an independent medical examination (which can only take place with your permission) arranged through HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) before a decision is made. The HMRC Disputes Team will then issue an informal opinion based on the evidence given by you, your employer and the results of the medical examination.
