Hulsey Workers' Comp Specialty Services
A functional capacity evaluation (FCE) is a set of tests, practices and observations that are combined to determine the ability of the evaluated to function in a variety of circumstances, most often employment, in an objective manner. The test can be beneficial in determining an injured worker’s capabilities and restrictions in trying to assess need for therapy intervention or determining the patient’s ability to return to a specific job duty. A test usually takes around 3 hours to complete.
We use the JTECH Northstar evaluative software and hardware at Hulsey Therapy Services PC, which has been validated and proven reliable and accurate.
Common Treatment Indications:
Post work related injury assessment. Help to determine MMI under the TWC guidelines.
When an employee is injured on the job, and once medical interventions has been exhausted, the workers comp administration may indicate that MMI (Maximal Medical Improvement) has been met and therefore warrants testing in order to reach a settlement and determine any long term residual impairment. This is a standardized scripted evaluation process that takes into account many objective diagnostic factors.
Being referred to out-patient Therapy to undergo the “Technical Component” of this process indicates the need for determining movement tolerances compared to established normative data for non-injured individuals. Once the test is completed, the results are sent back to the referring physician for them to add into the formal TWCC-69 form for filing.
