1 PHYSICAL THERAPY NETWORK TPTN PROVIDER NEWSLETTER - WINTER 2013 Functional Capacity Evaluations By Cynthia G. Rega, PT, MS HSA, CEAS II Accelerated Rehabilitation Centers Inside This Issue: A Functional Capacity Evaluation (FCE) is designed to objectively measure an individual's physical and functional capabilities which provides physicians, claims adjusters, employers and case managers with an objective, valid and reliable method to determine occupational activities an individual can safely perform following a work related injury or non-occupational illness. FCE s can assist with return-to-work (RTW) and case resolution when: Contributing Article Provider Authorizations There is a question about the patient's ability to RTW There are issues of non-compliance and/or suspected sub-maximal effort The job requires medium to heavy work or repetition There has been prolonged lost time at work A provider should be chosen who understands that two FCE formats need to be offered to the claimant. The Baseline FCE and a Job Specific FCE, both take about 4-5 hours. A Baseline FCE provides information about the patient s general physical capabilities and tolerances and establishes safe guidelines for general work activity. It is indicated when the employer is offering restricted duty, there is no job to return to, or there is high probability that the worker will be unable to return to the previous job. A Job Specific FCE is used to determine an individual s ability to perform specific job activities and/or return to their previous job. For a Job Specific FCE, it is vital that the therapist obtain a job description/analysis which outlines its specific physical demands. The components of both types of FCE s include: A Musculoskeletal Evaluation A Battery of research-based Consistency of Effort testing Reliability of Pain testing Functional tolerance testing Job Specific or Generic Functional Simulation Payor Protocol Authorization Request Form 5 Member Satisfaction Survey Provider Accolades Health Awareness Updates Reminder 8
2 Page 2 CONTRIBUTING ARTICLE (cont d) Referral questions are the key to determine which type of FCE is most appropriate. Referral questions may include: Determine individual s ability to return to full duty work Determine individual s ability to return to modified duty work Determine current physical and functional capabilities Assess consistency of effort Evaluate whether worker has received appropriate rehab to date Determine need for further rehabilitation services (i.e. Work Conditioning/Hardening) When scheduling patients for an FCE referral, sources should: Provide pertinent medical records, including current medications and any past medical history (i.e. diabetes, cardiac problems, seizures, high blood pressure) Provide the evaluating clinician with the initial evaluation and the discharge notes from previous therapy bouts Inform the evaluating clinician of the referral questions and whether or not recommendations should be included in the report Provide a thorough Job Description (for Job Specific FCE s) In summary, FCE s are a powerful tool that will identify an individual s ability to safely return-to-work, provide an assessment of work tasks an individual is safely capable of performing, and uncover issues that are impacting return to work such as reliability of pain and/or consistency of effort. Cynthia has been practicing physical therapy for over 25 years, with a concentration in workers compensation over the past 25+ years. Her clinical reputation and expertise in the area of industrial rehabilitation has established her as an expert in the area. Her extensive referral base of case managers and insurance adjusters in dealing with industrial rehabilitation clients has earned Cynthia the respect of the industrial community, where she lectures on a regular basis. She has been effective in on-site programs and return-to-work outcomes at Dominicks, Hyatt, Central Grocers, and the City of Chicago Fire Dept. Cindy is a Certified Ergonomics Assessment Specialist. Far and away the best prize that life offers is the chance to work hard at work worth doing ~ Thomas Jefferson

4 Page 4 TPTN SECONDARY PAYOR PROTOCOL FOR NON-MEDICARE PRIMARY INSURANCE PLANS Due to recent inquiries regarding TheraMatrix Physical Therapy Network s (TPTN) protocol for reimbursement of services when secondary to a Non-Medicare Primary Insurance Plan, please note our existing policy and procedure below. TPTN administers the Outpatient Physical Therapy (OPPT) benefit for specific enrollees of Ford Health Plan, General Motors Health Plan, and the United Auto Workers Retiree Medical Benefits Trust (VEBA-FORD). Eligible enrollees covered by the TPTN program are outlined by group section code in the TPTN Quick Reference Guide and Provider Manual. Each of the above mentioned health plans are self-funded and secondary reimbursement to a non-medicare primary insurance plan are only payable by TPTN when the primary payer s reimbursement has not exceeded the TPTN daily maximum cap rate for the respective state and services are prior authorized as required by our program protocols. Moreover, as the supplemental payer, TPTN will reimburse applicable co-payments and deductibles as determined by the enrollee s primary payer, not to exceed the maximum of the enrollees TPTN allowable daily cap rate per visit. In the event a primary insurance plan does not reimbursement for services and TPTN is the secondary insurer, a provider of service must meet all of the TPTN program protocols, including prior authorization and timely filing, to be eligible for reimbursement at the TPTN fee schedule. If you require additional information regarding this protocol, please contact our Customer Service Center at (888) and a dedicated representative will be available to assist you. Do not follow where the path may lead. Go instead where there is no path and leave a trail. ~ Harold R. McAlindon ~
