Evaluation Services
Functional Capacity Evaluations
At XcelABLE, we specialize in Functional Capacity Evaluations (FCE), frequently used to determine physical work demands, functional limitations, and disability status. Our evaluations are designed to assess the extent of impairments resulting from an injury and provide clear, objective insights for all involved parties, including patients, employers, insurance companies, attorneys, and physicians.
We deliver Xcellence in every evaluation, ensuring measurable outcomes with an emphasis on validity, reliability, and—above all—safety. Utilizing a sophisticated computerized evaluation system, national network of physical and occupational therapy providers , all with over 5 years of experience, are certified in FCEs and trained to analyze data through evidence-based practices for accurate reporting and physical demand classifications.
Work restrictions should never be determined through guesswork or automated systems alone. The complex nature of functional capacity assessments requires the expertise of specialists who consider the whole person, not just data points. By focusing solely on the evaluation process, XcelABLE provides precise, reliable assessments to support safe and effective return-to-work decisions.
Ergonomic Evaluation
We generate a detailed report that provides specific demands necessary for performing one’s occupation and can be used for job analysis. This report includes detail on the force, frequency, and motions required for executing one’s work. An on-site evaluation service may be necessary to generate this analysis.
Ergonomic Evaluation
An ergonomic assessment aims to identify and reduce risk areas in the employee’s workstation that put them at an increased chance of injury. Administered by a licensed physical or licensed occupational therapist, the assessment includes educating the employee about the proper positions and postures to maintain while performing their job duties. We offer virtual ergonomic assessments for individuals who cannot be accessed by one of our clinicians or if an on-site evaluation does not fit within the fiscal budget. All clients are provided access to our mobile app for stretching programs to perform at work.
FIGUR8 Partnership
XcelABLE is proud to have an exclusive partnership with FIGUR8, enabling us to enhance the Functional Capacity Evaluation (FCE) process with advanced, objective measurements of muscle fatigue and function. We recognize that assessing work ability extends beyond strength and range of motion; a deeper analysis of muscle performance and fatigue offers a more comprehensive and accurate understanding of each client’s functional capacity. Upon request by the referring provider, FIGUR8 assessments can be seamlessly integrated into any FCE.
Research Partnership
Additionally, we have partnered with a leading Midwestern university on research aimed at better understanding the characteristics of injured workers to improve treatment strategies and outcomes. Participation in our research is voluntary, and rest assured that your personal health information will remain confidential, accessible only to XcelABLE. We are committed to achieving Xcellence through continuous education and research, as these efforts are key to advancing our practices and enhancing the quality of care we provide.
