### Editorial take

_Editorial — Medrecords AI._

AADEP is the physician-educator niche of impairment rating — smaller and deeper than the claims conferences; its scientific sessions are the closest thing to a peer-reviewed gathering for IME methodology itself.

Official brochures focus on guideline comparison and clinical skills for disability evaluators; CEDIR certification growth documents the practitioner base.
