In Tennessee we run on-site diagnostic imaging out of our Chattanooga-region location. Because Tennessee's one-year statute of limitations is the shortest in the Southeast, same-week imaging is a priority for every new PI evaluation.
The Chattanooga metro's I-24, I-75, and Highway 27 corridors generate the majority of our motor-vehicle-collision evaluations, with a distinct pattern of long-haul-truck involvement due to the I-24 / I-75 freight crossroads. Industrial and construction injuries in Hamilton and Bradley counties round out our volume.
We handle Tennessee Bureau of Workers' Compensation cases, including panel-of-physicians selections and Medical Impairment Rating (MIR) evaluations under Tenn. Code Ann. § 50-6-204.
