The Summit Health and Rehab Services also implemented OccuCare's comprehensive industrial rehab software. system at this training program.The Summit Health and Rehab had been sending their Functional Capacity Evaluation and Work Hardening patients to clinics 90 miles away from their rehab department since that was the closest location for these patients to go. They realized an untapped market and contacted OccuCare because of the full approach to industrial rehab OccuCare offers in their software and training programs. The software OccuCare implemented into The Summit Health and Rehab offers six different industrial rehab testing options which produces eight different return to work reports all in one system. They also liked the fact that they were going to be trained in all industrial rehab services all in one course.

Many rehab facilities looking to implement industrial rehab are turning to OccuCare's software and training secondary to the innovative products they offer in their program. These innovative products include Functional Progress Notes TM and Functional Discharge Summaries TM which are functional re-assessments that are performed during outpatient therapy. Unlike an FCE that tests a persons entire body, these functional re-assessments test the injured joint to help determine if the injured joint is ready to return to full duty work. These functional re-assessments do not require a Dr's order, do not require insurance approval, and usually are a 50% to 100% higher charge ticket as compared to a standard re-eval charge tickets.The methodologies OccuCare teaches clinics throughout the United States include implementing a full approach to industrial rehab from initial outpatient eval all the way to return to work. Clinics that implement OccuCare's Online Assessment Application and participate in their Comprehensive Industrial Rehab Training course are clinics that specialize in the treatment of the injured worker.
