WORK CAPACITY & FUNCTIONAL RESTRICTION TRACKING

Track how restrictions change, not just the latest note. BETA

Work capacity and functional restriction tracking software from Medrecords AI builds a dated trajectory of work status, functional limitations, rehabilitation goals, assistive devices, and standardized outcome measures, keeping provider recommendation, employer accommodation, and actual status on separate, cited tracks. Live in beta and testable today.

IN ACTIVE BETA
Refined hands-on with early customers, tracking every restriction and status change, cited throughout.

Three tracks, never merged into one.

Provider recommendation, employer accommodation, and actual return-to-work status are three different facts that often move on different timelines, so they're tracked separately, each dated and cited. A trajectory built this way shows what was recommended, what was offered, and what actually happened — without collapsing the three into a single misleading status.

Conflicts surfaced, not resolved for you.

When the three tracks disagree — a provider clears full duty while the employer's accommodation still shows light duty, say — that disagreement is flagged rather than silently averaged or picked between. Rehab goals, assistive devices, and standardized outcome measures are tracked the same way: dated, cited, and never smoothed over.

The boundary

Capacity is never assumed from a diagnosis alone.

Work capacity is only ever drawn from what a provider, an employer, or an observed record actually states — never inferred just because a diagnosis is present. Provider recommendation, employer accommodation, and actual return-to-work status are kept in three separate, dated tracks so none of them gets mistaken for the others.

When the tracks disagree, that conflict is shown, not silently resolved in either direction. The trajectory is a record of what was recommended, offered, and observed — deciding what it means for a claim or a case stays a human call. Audit-grade, source-linked, and no smoothing over disagreement.

From one note to a dated trajectory.

Three steps, with conflicts left for a reviewer to resolve.

01
Notes tagged to the right track

Every visit or note is assigned to provider recommendation, employer accommodation, or actual status, with a date.

02
Trajectory assembled across all three

The three tracks come together into one dated, cited history of restrictions and status.

03
Disagreements flagged, not resolved

Where the tracks conflict, that conflict is surfaced — never silently smoothed over.

Who reads the trajectory.

The same dated history, useful wherever a restriction timeline needs to hold up.

FAQ

Work capacity & functional restriction tracking, answered.

Provider recommendation is what a treating clinician says the patient can do; employer accommodation is what work the employer actually offered; actual status is what was observed to happen. They often move on different timelines, so they're tracked and dated separately rather than merged into one status.

No. Capacity is only drawn from what a provider, employer, or observed record actually states — a diagnosis on its own is never treated as evidence of what someone can or can't do.

Yes, in beta. Work capacity & functional restriction tracking is live and testable now; we're refining it hands-on with early customers, and if your use case is a good fit we'll work with you directly.

Any point where the three tracks disagree — for example, a provider clearing full duty while the employer's accommodation still reflects light duty. Conflicts are flagged and dated, not silently resolved in either direction.

Alongside work status, it follows functional limitations, rehabilitation goals, assistive devices, and standardized outcome measures over time, each entry dated and cited to its source.
