The California Society of Industrial Medicine & Surgery (CSIMS)

Santa Ana, California, United States of America

CSIMS was founded on the shoulders of nine California physicians who banded together in 1980 after the passing of Senate Bill 375. The founders couldn’t stand to see the limitations on physicians put into place by a legislation that didn’t understand the implications Senate Bill 375 would place on physicians, QMEs, and ultimately their patients. The foundational mission of CSIMS was to keep physicians abreast to change, being the eyes, ears, and voice for practitioners in workers' compensation in California.

They are proud to say we are rooted in the very same mission today.

There is no other organization like CSIMS for physicians in workers compensation. Made up of seasoned veterans in the world of workers' compensation, we’re committed to being the collective voice for physicians through advocacy, and educating physicians, attorneys, and corporate members on how to navigate the complexities of workers' compensation to make us better in business, and give our patients the best possible treatment.
