Sparkey,

What I done to find a Computer Operated FCE. Was I called around several Rehab Centers and Therapy Places, then I call Hospital Medical Centers Rehab Departments. One of them lead me to a place that had the system.

Limbo, I was never asked such a question for a computer operated FCE. I do know there are a few different systems out there, one of them being Joule. The one I had was a Candian Base Program.

Hi BX4!! I really couldn't Tell You the Name of the Computerized Equipment, but they had a Short Questionaire to Answer before they did the Test, along with All of Your Personal Info. etc., and then the Questions. Even at the End of the Tests, they had You set at a Desk and Answer Questions, and the Answers showed a Figure of a Person in Different Positions, and You had to Answer which Ones You could do, and which Ones You couldn't,and they even Repeated some of them to make Sure You were being Truthful. Then they took the Answers from Your Test, and Compared them to what the Computerized FCE Measured, and came up with a Percentage of Actual Pain vs. Psychological Pain. It was Very in Depth, I guess they wanted to See what You Thought You could do vs. what the Computerized FCE Showed You could do. I was Very Happy they did it that Way, because it Showed that My mental State and Actual Physical Capabilities were in Check! They Really did it All with Me, I thought they were All that Way!Wink

Knowledge is Power, Especially in the World of w/c. Learn as Much as You can about Your States w/c Laws, and don't Fight Battles alone, They Use Attorney's, and so Should You!!
