Lumetra Insights
August 2009
Lumetra, a fully accredited Independent Review Organization (IRO) by URAC, is seeking physician partners to serve as peer reviewers for a variety of national and international clients. Physician peer reviewers examine medical files and provide feedback on whether the care provided meets professional standards and evidence-based practices.
Lumetra offers competitive and generous reimbursement for case review. Through participation in Lumetra’s Peer Review Program, physicians are involved in the work of medical review: sharpening clinical skills through oversight of care by peers around the country and beyond. No liability or litigation is involved. According to Mousa Shamonki, MD, who practices obstetrics and gynecology at UCLA, “It is a pleasure to work with Lumetra. They make the process so, so easy for Physician Reviewers.”
Requirements for participation
- Active clinical practice (full-time or part-time)
- Hospital privileges
- Medical license
- Affiliation with an academic center
- Knowledge of Workers Compensation, disability insurance guidelines (optional)
Note: All reviews are time-sensitive, and – as such – require commitment to timeliness and timelines.
