Functional Capacity Evaluation
What is it:
This is a reliable test to help determine an injured person's ability to tolerate work activities. Using the Matheson System, our certified evaluators will outline the person's work capacity. Functional tolerances for work positions, dexterity, and upper extremity use, level of effort, and overall subjective reliability. The Matheson System is designed to help close workers' compensation cases. Our evaluators have experience as expert witnesses in regards to functional testing. We are "thinking evaluators" who will answer your questions!
Who Provides the Services:
"Certified Work Capacity Evaluators." These are physical and occupational therapists registered in Vermont who have been providing functional testing and understand the demands of work. We are experienced industrial physical and occupational therapists, which means we understand workers and can return them to work or determine their abilities to help in case closure. Our evaluators are also instructed in the Matheson System with over twenty years of experience in the field.
