RETURN-TO-WORK/FUNCTIONAL CAPACITY EVALUATIONS
These are required by most companies as part of their return-to-work policy. The test is considered a medical exam by the EEOC and must be conducted by a licensed medical provider. Employers request the return-to-work evaluation prior to an employee being released to full duty. Prior to the last Doctor visit a Return-to-Work Evaluation will be completed to ensure the injured employee is back to pre-injury level. The Return-to-Work test documents the employee is back to pre-injury level (as required by Workers' Compensation laws). This also protects the employer from future litigation. A copy is sent to the treating physician and is used by them to release the employee back to work. Again, the Physical Therapist simply replaces the existing subjective testing with a isokinetic test during the discharge evaluation. No additional cost is incurred by the employer.
*Isokinetic Testing has passed the Daubert Standard, meaning its data is acceptable evidence in court cases.
