not necessarily the same. An EUO or Examination Under Oath is generally conducted by an attorney and is in many ways similar to a deposition, only without the rules of evidence. I would suggest that you not attend an EUO without representation.
As for the interpreters, court approved interpreters are generally not employees of the insurance company, but are independent. Their fees are usually paid by the party requesting the service, so yes the insurance company does "hire" them.
