Functional Capacity Evaluation
The certified functional capacity evaluation (FCE) therapist at Merit Health Madison evaluates an individual’s capacity to perform work activities related to his or her employment requirements. An FCE can be used to:
- Determine fitness to work following an extended period of medical leave.
- Determine ability to meet job demands as part of a hiring process.
- To help identify changes to employee workload and working conditions in an effort to accommodate an employee with a disability or medical condition.
- Determine eligibility for disability insurance or pension if an employee is permanently unable to return to work.
