IPE in Medical Billing
IPE stands for Independent Patient Evaluation, a process in which an independent healthcare professional evaluates a patient’s condition, typically for insurance purposes or legal cases.
IPE in Medical Billing Explained
In medical billing, IPEs are often required to assess a patient’s condition objectively, especially in workers’ compensation, personal injury, or disability cases. The independent evaluation helps ensure that the medical assessment is unbiased and accurate.
For example, an insurance company may require an IPE to determine the extent of a patient’s injury before approving a claim.
