A Functional Capacity Evaluation (FCE) is a set of standardized tests and observations used to determine an individual’s fitness for work.

Our FCEs are performed by a licensed physical therapist and certified functional capacity evaluator with more than 27 years of experience performing FCEs. These tests can help determine an individual’s ability to perform a specific occupation or job, or establish a baseline of functional abilities for vocational planning.

Our FCEs utilize the OccuPro FCE model and software to evaluate an individual’s effort and consistency during testing, as well as the reliability of reported pain. The evaluation also helps assess an injured employee’s ability to perform job-related tasks and may provide information relevant to disability determinations. The reports are designed for physicians, insurance carriers, and employers, helping everyone involved in the process of returning an injured employee to work. The FCE report is generated immediately upon completion of the evaluation, and reports can be emailed or faxed within minutes.
