Schedule AppointmentWhat is a Functional Capacity Exam?
A functional capacity exam (FCE) is a detailed medical evaluation used to measure a person’s physical capabilities. Often requested for workers’ compensation claims, personal injury cases or disability documentation, an FCE helps determine what tasks a person can safely perform in a work environment. Functional capacity exams provide essential insight for return-to-work planning and long-term care decisions.
What to Expect During a Functional Capacity Evaluation
Each FCE is tailored to the individual’s job requirements and medical condition. Patients complete physical tasks such as lifting, pushing, walking and grip strength while licensed professionals monitor performance and endurance. A functional capacity exam may take several hours and includes a full review of medical history, pain response and physical function to guide future care or legal documentation.
