AMA Guides® to Navigating Disability Benefit Systems: Essentials for the Health Care Professional was written for front-line health care professionals—primary care physicians, specialists, and psychologists—who do not have specialized training in evaluating patients with regard to work capacity, but who often find themselves facing patients who believe they are unable to work because of a health condition. Written by front-line physicians with long histories of working in disability evaluation, this guide dispels confusion and misconceptions. It also addresses the human issues of work ability and return to work, promoting health by promoting work, and communicating with patients, employers, and insurers.
