Abstract
A method and system teaches unique applications of logic and statistics to medical processes to obtain substantially improved accuracy in the measurement of a examinee's pathology due to an injury. The method and the system incorporate strict protocols, or “Administrative Rule Sets” to direct the examination for the purpose of obtaining an optimal data set, from which a rating of the impairment due to the pathology resulting from an injury may be determined. Additionally, within this method and system, a statistical analysis may additionally assist in obtaining an improved accuracy of impairment ratings. Consequently, the errors in the impairment rating presently carried forward through the disability, care and compensation phases of the process are now avoided.
