Physicians: Once the course of physical therapy has been completed, ensure your patient is fit to safely return to work by referring them for an FCE. A baseline FCE will objectively compare a patient's functional ability with current job demands. Work conditioning and work hardening programs will bridge the gap between discharge from outpatient physical therapy to return to full work duty.
Attorneys: Functional Capacity Evaluation (FCE's) are an extension of the Independent Medical Examination (IME). Objectify your client's level of disability as it pertains to function. Has your client's ability to perform activities of daily living and/or return to full work duty been impacted by an injury?
