Independent medical examination fees (neuropsychologists)

Update on new Medical Examination Model

From 1 July 2025, the TAC’s new Medical Examination Model will be in place. Under this model, the provision of Independent Medical Examination (IME) services will be supplied by a panel of medico-legal intermediaries.

  • For IME services booked prior to 1 July 2025, medical examiners should invoice the TAC using the 2024/25 fee schedules below.
  • From 1 July 2025, the TAC will book medical examinations via a panel of intermediary suppliers. If you would like to continue providing these services to the TAC, please reach out to the panel of intermediary suppliers to register your interest. These details will be available in July.

If you have any questions about the new model or registering your interest with a panel supplier, please contact us at medical_examiners@tac.vic.gov.au.
