In detail
What objective findings means in practice
Objective findings anchor the injury narrative. Demands that rely mainly on subjective complaint are evaluated accordingly.
Why it matters
Carrier reviewers weight documented findings far more heavily than characterization.
Example
MRI impression: C5-6 disc protrusion with foraminal narrowing.
