What is a Functional Assessment for Disability?

Evaluations for mental health disability are assessments used to determine if an individual is eligible for disability benefits due to a mental health condition. This evaluation process involves a comprehensive assessment of an individual’s mental health history, current symptoms, and functional limitations within a work setting. The goal of the evaluation is to determine the severity of the individual’s mental health condition and how it affects their ability to work. The evaluating psychologist considers factors such as the individual’s ability to concentrate, their memory and thinking abilities, their ability to manage stress, and their ability to interact with others. The evaluation results are used by the disability agency to decide on the individual’s eligibility for disability benefits. Further, the evaluating psychologist will provide recommendations for treatment and supportive services to help manage their mental health condition and improve their ability to function.
