Claimed damages after doctor's examination (7)

I believe the answer is:

medical

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'examination' is the definition.
(I know that medical is a type of examination)

'claimed damages after doctor's' is the wordplay.
'claimed' can be anagrammed to 'MEDICAL'.
Though, I am not sure how the anagram is indicated.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for medical that I've seen before include "Test for health" , "Declaim (anag) -- health check" , "Of the science dealing with treatment of disease" , "Thorough health check" , "Relating to the art of healing" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
