A
functional abilities evaluation (FAE), or Functional
Capacity Evaluation (FCE) objectively determines
the claimant’s functional abilities and restrictions
(i.e. strength, dexterity, endurance, etc.).
By comparing FAE results to job requirements,
the evaluation helps to facilitate a safe and
timely return to the workplace. It can also
help insurers to determine the extent to which
physical impairments are present. Medisys offers
one-, two- or three-day functional testing
and our team of specialists is trained to do
FAEs on both the Matheson and Arcon systems.
Note that all FAEs are integrated with a physical
medical assessment and have medical clearance
from a Regulated Health Professional (RHP). |
