The OIAA Claims Conference is one of the most anticipated events on the insurance calendar - bringing together a broad spectrum of professionals who shape, manage, and influence the claims landscape across Ontario and beyond.
In 2026, Direct IME is proud to be part of the conversation.
If you’re attending the conference - whether as an adjuster, adjudicator, risk manager, broker, regulator, or industry partner - we’re looking forward to connecting.
The OIAA Claims Conference brings together:
What unites this group is responsibility. Each plays a role in navigating risk, assessing entitlement, managing exposure, and ensuring fair outcomes within an evolving regulatory and economic landscape.
And that’s where high-quality, independent assessments matter.
Today’s claims environment is increasingly complex. Co-morbidities are more common. Psychological components intersect with physical injury. Return-to-work expectations are evolving. Litigation scrutiny is high.
For claims professionals, clarity isn’t optional - it’s essential.
Direct IME supports the industry by delivering:
Our focus isn’t just producing reports - it’s helping decision-makers move files forward with confidence.
Whether you’re an adjuster managing a growing caseload, a WSIB adjudicator reviewing entitlement, a risk manager assessing exposure, or a reinsurer evaluating long-term impact, the need is the same: reliable, defensible, objective evidence.
Our national medical panel includes experienced specialists across disciplines, supported by a coordinated service team that manages scheduling, records collection, testing, quality assurance, and report delivery.
The result is a streamlined process that reduces friction and supports timely decision-making - without compromising clinical integrity.
We’re also excited to connect with students enrolled in full-time insurance programs and professionals entering the field.
The future of insurance depends on strong foundations in evidence-based decision-making, independent analysis, and ethical process. Conferences like OIAA create space for mentorship, innovation, and professional growth - and we’re proud to contribute to that ecosystem.
The OIAA Claims Conference is more than a networking event - it’s a forum for collaboration, insight, and industry advancement.
If you’re attending, we invite you to stop by the Direct IME booth. Whether you want to discuss complex claims, evolving assessment standards, emerging trends in Ontario auto insurance Accident Benefits (AB) claims, or simply introduce yourself, we’d love to connect.
