Overview

This book helps you to understand the use of FCEs in determining disability. Bridging the gap between impairment and disability, the """"AMA Guide to the Evaluation of Functional Ability"""" provides a practical approach to functional capacity evaluations (FCEs) in relation to assessing patients' physical ability. With this book, readers will be able to: know the differences between various functional tests to request the appropriate type; design, interpret and apply FCEs to process workers' compensation and to rate disability; clearly discuss and document how to best use the data in FCEs to assess a patient's ability to perform work-related and non-work-related activities of daily living, or ADLs; and, interpret and apply an FCE report and understand legal implications of FCEs.
