Psychiatric examination as a second opinion
Psychiatric examination can be used as a second opinion to assess an ongoing treatment. For example, to check it against the latest treatment guidelines. In addition, psychiatric examinations are increasingly used in objection and appeal procedures when the outcome of a earlier previously performed examination or assessment is in question. Our psychiatrists are aware of the legal assessment frameworks and have knowledge of insurance medical instruments such as the FML.
A second opinion provides clarity for
- questions about the presence or absence of a psychiatric disorder
- proving or ruling out personality problems
- determining limitations in personal and social functioning
- determining usable possibilities
- stagnating recovery or reintegration
- evaluating of previous treatments and reintegration pathways
- identifying treatment options
- determining the prognosis
