A Functional Capacity Evaluation ("FCE") involves a battery of objective of tests, practices, and observations to evaluate your physical ability to function in different areas. The final report can help demonstrate the aggregate impact of your symptoms on your ability to perform essential work functions. You are eligible for disability payments, disability placards and other considerations.
