FCE

You might be asked to get a functional capacity exam (FCE) for various reasons – you were asked by your employer, it’s required for a worker’s compensation claim, or even for your own interest. The functional capacity exam is administered to discover precisely how capable a person is of performing the tasks and functions required for their job. Our doctors will go through a series of tasks that might be part of your job to observe how your body handles the various movements. Then, the doctor will create a report that they will send to the patient and insurance companies. This report will outline the best possible work conditions for the patient and set a timeline for a full return to normal work.
During a functional capacity exam, one of our doctors evaluates your ability to perform the essential tasks of your job. This will start with a consultation to go over your personal and medical history. Our doctors take the time to understand your symptoms, the nature of your injury, and what tasks are required for day-to-day work. Based on this information, the doctor will observe you performing exercises like lifting boxes, walking, bending, or other specific work simulations. After this evaluation, the team will establish a timeline for the best treatments and rehabilitation exercises to get you back to work.
A functional capacity exam is often one of the first evaluations required for an employer or worker’s compensation claim. At our clinic, we understand that these examinations are an essential part of your path to recovery. So we take the time to fully understand the patient’s background, injury, and work requirements. This allows us to tailor our functional capacity exam to test for your specific needs. Once the evaluation is complete, our team will guide you through the treatments, procedures, and rehabilitation exercises you’ll need to get back to your best working shape.
