MES Solutions
Reviews and Complaints

I had an IME exam. The provider had asked me too do a few things. Such as touch my toes with my fingertips. Although i was told not too do anything that would cause pain, however i didnt want too over exaggerate my pain. So i did my best. In the process of me trying too touch my toes, the sharp shooting pain in my back made it impossible and i started too bawl my eyes out like a baby. For one; the provider acted like nothing happened. Just kept taking down his notes. For two; he failed too mention that in his report. He stayed I did not show any sort of pain. Third thing; He reviewed my “ medical

records” that were only a month. In his report, he made false statements about my “history”. And re worded what my drs said. Too make it seem like i had no workplace injury. I have my after visit summary's from each drs appointment. They do not match the IME report. My major symptom was tension headaches. The IME provider is an Orthopedic Surgeon, not a neurologist. The provider stated that in his report as well.

I requested an independent review at the beginning of October 2021. My deductible of $1500.00 had been met. And after exhausting all attempts to get somewhere with my health insurance provider after not finding anyone in their network of doctors to properly care for my needs; I couldn't get my doctor approved through my health insurance provider for out of network benefits. Before requesting the independent review I had been denied three times by my health insurance. They deemed my surgery was "experimental/investigational". I requested in writing like I was informed to do so by a customer service representative as well as sent a packet of information along with the request for an external examination to the insurance headquarters of my health insurance to Los Angles, CA and Atlanta, GA like I was told to do so. Three months after the request and in this new year of 2022 when my deductible has reset; I get my denial letter from MES Solutions stating they upheld the denial decision of the insurance company that my surgery would be "investigational"! As I'm looking through their findings I see critical information not in their findings that was the sag way to everything to take place there after; that was in the information they had stated previously they received to do the review. I called MES Solutions and the representative said I had to speak with a nurse about my report. She put in a request for a nurse to call me and said one would call me shortly. Forty-eight minutes later I got a call from a blocked number and it was a nurse. The call lasted fifteen minutes before the nurse hung up on me. During the call I challenged her about the information in the report and what wasn't put in the report that was apart of one the doctors notes they had in their information. Some of my questions she stated was out of her scope so I said why can't I speak to a doctor then someone that can answer my questions since you guy's are medical professionals. You're saying the procedure is investigational; I feel like you should be able to tell me what is available and not refer me back to my insurance provider. I stated they provide insurance their not medical professionals like you guy's so you should be able to tell me what can be done. The nurse said she answered to the best she could and that I needed to call the number at the bottom of the report if I had any other problems with the report and she could provide the number if I didn't have it. I continued to hit her with questions and I did ask for the number but I guess I frustrated her because she hung up on me!

Looking into complaints online about MES Solutions; I come to the determination that a lot of major insurance carriers maybe not all but a lot of them use this peer review company. It makes you wonder how many thousands of Americans have lost out on much needed treatment do to the apparent "shady" practices of basically being paid off for a report that serves as a "get out of jail free" card for these multi million dollar insurance companies. And as claimants we are left to suffer without getting what the treatment we need to improve our quality of life daily! With all the advances in science and technology nowadays there is no reason why people have to suffer unnecessarily because of the insurance industry in "my personal" opinion is tightly regulated and scrutinized for their practices like they want to send you to this doctor and that doctor and still find a way to not approve coverage or it's not apart of your explanation of benefits.

I hit my head sustaining two injuries at work. I was diagnosed with pcs and a year later spine herniations from spasms caused by inflammation at the sight of secondary injury to the neck.

There were literal days I could not walk.

I sincerely believe and know that mes finds the dirtiest 'doctors' to discredit folks who really need help to make a quick buck. it's disgusting but what choice do we have but to comply.
I hope a federal investigation is opened into this shady and harmful waste of way to make a few bucks.

Doctors are being paid large amounts of money to examine people for work Comp claims. I will post a picture of the amount a Phd examiner gets paid.
It was sent to me on accident.
These doctors are being paid to lie. IMHO.
I spent hours in her office answering about a 1000 questions in three different tests. Then about 45 minutes talking with her about my issues. I don't feel these type of doctors are trustworthy.

I went to a medical exam with a doctor for this company. I been dealing with this work injury for years. It was understood and accepted what the injury was from many doctors and claims managers. This doctor seen me for 10 minutes and managed to misrepresent years of reports and other doctors quotes. He was misleading and did not care what the facts were. His motivation was to reverse the decisions and diagnosis's of many doctors. Like I said he spent 10 minutes with me and did not look at any CT or MRI scans, nor did he request any. Very unprofessional and has caused me a lot of problems. Like I needed more. This will be overturned and I will get the surgeries I need but he has made it difficult because he cant be objective and truthful. He works part time for MES Solutions and nowhere else. He is 38 and apparently has had no other job. His name was Dr. Sean Kearney (Orthopedic Surgeon). It is scary to know there is a doctor out there willing to lie about someone's health for his own gain.

I sent a message to [protected]@toxicmoldregistry.org and it came back. I wanted to discuss going public with a complete paper trail how the information is manipulated. Does anyone know how to contact him. His post was may 17th 2012 under FounderPaul. I would be open to document my findings. Any suggestions on who to contact. I have spent 3 years putting this together.

MES Solutions is a biased, inaccurate "peer review" oragnization. Money is obviously passing hands behind the scenes between insurance companies and MES. I have never experienced such blatant outright hypocripsy. Our daughter is in a shortterm residential treatment center. The treatment center is in CONTRACT with United Behavioral Health. Our daughter entered the treatment center due to very recent life threatening situations due to her mental health. Substance abuse is secondary to her Mental Health diagnosis. United Behavioral Health denied our coverage on two appeals due to "her substance abuse can and should be treated at an outpatient facility". She did not enter the residential facility due to her substance abuse - UBH knows that and has all of her records to support that information. After our second appeal and rejection, we were told that we could "do a last appeal to an independent peer review". We chose that option, believing that anyone that is unbiased and can read pertinent current & clinical history will no doubt overturn the biased ruling of UBS. So imagine our surprise when returning from a National Alliance Mental Illness - NAMI walk today to fight stigma, bias, and foster support of mental illness, we receive a letter from MES Solutions rejecting our claim. Two pieces of information in the letter they supplied are outright lies. One again incorrectly states the reason for our daughter's entrance into the facility as "substance abuse". The second infuriating statement quotes "the mother"( me) in an absolute lie. It quotes me of saying the actual opposite of somerthing I had said in medical records. MES Solutions never once reached out to "the mother" they are quoting in their letter.
There have been and continue to be SO many frustrating and heartbreaking things when dealing with Mental Illness. Watching a loved one suffer from a mental illness is difficult enough, but dealing with a system that not only discourages recovery but hinders it is absolutely unacceptable. If someone suffers from Diabetes or Heart Disease the facts become more difficult to argue for the insurance industry. With Mental Illness, there are all kinds of loopholes and slippery ways for the responsible parties to hide behind their responsibilities. A blood test or xray does not yet exist for mental illness - yet it is as real and potentially more dangerous than many illnesses. Our fight as with many people is an uphill battle but one we are detrmined to win. My anger and disgust for the ignorance and disregard of UBH and MES Solutions will not be for naught. Action and attention is the only thing that will get them to change their ways. Lawsuits and media attention. The "professionals" need to come out from hiding and accountability needs to take place. That is the only way change will happen. Please join me as I file much needed lawsuits against these companies and work on pressuring legislators to get laws changed. If they do not hear us in a language they can understand, their pockets, and their reputations, nothing will change.

Please view the evidence about MES I've posted at www.obamacontractswithfelons.blogspot.com

Thank you to everyone who has already helped and will help more.

It's a waste of time even attending these insurance [censored] exams, because there's nothing "independent" about them, and the doctors performing them are a joke! The reports contain lies, and omit relevant, objective evidence - rendering them purposely slanted in the insurance companies favor. If they weren't, I doubt the "doctor" would continue receiving referrals, because MES stated the insurance companies can request the doctors they wish to perform the IME. Attorneys don't have the best reputation for being moral individuals, but even they're aware of MES's "dirty doctor pool." One attorney said MES is really scraping the bottom of it!

So, MES, if you don't like the reputation you're getting, launch an internal investigation to find out what's going on between your IME doctors, the insurance companies, and the victims being sent to these sleazy, overpaid providers. Maybe your CEO should go on "Undercover Boss." If you don't make any efforts to clean up your slimy reputation, then hopefully you'll end up entangled in lawsuits with insurers - just like State Farm & Allstate!

I, too, have been subject of a biased assessment of my medical records by MES Solutioons, hired by my LTD insurer, Hartford-(the ones that are subject of ABC's Reporter Chris Cuomo's scathing report on the fraudulent practices by Hartford of surveillance of claimants to drop those who are legitimately disabled from recieving benefits) to assess my functionality. Let me start by saying that both the reviewers contracted through MES blatantly ignored any and all credible evidence from all my multiple treating physicians' assessments of disability, and distorted any smattering of weak facts they could to support the insurance companys' request for denial of claim. In fact, they never interviewed any of the doctors who supported my condition, nor commented on the numerous reports indicating a disabling condition. They used selected and biased commentaries from the insurance companys case manager, but never question the validity of the summary nor acknowledged that the medical evidence did not support the insurance companys obvious desire to terminate my benefits. Shame on them! Goes to show that the almighty buck does indeed illicit conformatory bias. This is bad faith practice.

PS. Mr Orr. Don't bother threatening me, because this is a public forum, and I have every right to state my opinion. You are wasting your time and you only make your company look more guilty.

MES Solutions sent me to an IME (Independant medical Examiner) an orthopedic Dr. He lied to me about the medical records he allegedly had. He stated that we were going to say things off the record because he could get into trouble with MES Solutions. That MES Solutions is the one that pays him and he gets most of his buisness through MES Solutions. The Dr. saw me for 20 mins and told me the issue was not with the one part of my body that 4 other Drs said it was but it was just my shoulder. The Dr said my case worker is not going to like to see that on the report. My question is I never released MES Solutions which were hired by Cigna Long Term Disability (yet another company that is a fraud) Is there not a medical record disclosure act? So now since this IME Dr and MES Solution deemed my not disabled in a 20 minute evauation I am lossing my disability benefits. Cigna can't just use my 4 Drs recommendations, the procedures I have underwent to get possibly fixed and my own account of my limitations. Cigna used 1 company MES Solutions and a Dr that lied to me and was told to lie. Cigna, MES Solutions, and the Dr are frauds! I wish I could name the Dr because my Drs. have heard things about him doing the same stuff to others.
