WORK RESTRICTION EXTRACTION SOFTWARE

Every stated restriction, pulled out of the narrative.

Work limitation extraction software pulls every stated restriction out of the medical record — lifting limits, sedentary-only orders, return-to-work dates — extracted from wherever a provider stated them and structured into one list, with each restriction cited back to its source note so you can verify it in the original.

Apr 02 "No work until re-evaluation" OFF WORK p.121

Buried in the narrative, structured on arrival
Restrictions live in progress-note paragraphs, checkbox forms, and discharge summaries. Here they become one dated, cited list — the work-status history of the whole file.

Found wherever the provider wrote it.

A lifting limit rarely arrives on a tidy form. It's a sentence in the plan section, a checkbox on a state work-status form, a line in a therapy discharge summary. The AI reads every page — including handwriting — and extracts each stated restriction with its value, effective date, and the provider who stated it.

Narrative sentences and checkbox forms read the same way

Duty classifications and RTW dates, in sequence.

Off work, sedentary, light, modified, full — each restriction entry carries the provider's stated duty classification and any return-to-work determination, so the progression from injury to release reads as one sequence. The classification is what the provider wrote, never inferred.

Return-to-work determinations with their dates and authors
Gaps in the work-status record are visible, not papered over

When providers disagree, you see both.

The treating physician keeps the claimant sedentary; the IME physician releases to light duty over the same weeks. That conflict is exactly what a file review needs to catch — so it's flagged explicitly, with both statements cited side by side. The software surfaces the disagreement; resolving it stays with you.

Overlapping, conflicting restrictions flagged — never merged

Audit-grade by default

Every restriction cites the note that stated it.

Work status drives benefits, and benefits disputes end up in front of judges. So the list is source-linked and legally defensible: each entry cites its page, in the provider's own words. Undated or illegible entries are flagged for review, never silently filled in.

FAQ

Work restriction extraction, answered.

The AI reads every page for return-to-work statements wherever they appear — work-status forms, progress-note narrative, therapy discharge summaries, or a checkbox on a state form. Each determination is structured with its date, the provider who made it, whether it is full or modified duty, and a page citation to the exact source.

Yes. Lifting limits, no-overhead-work orders, standing and sitting tolerances, driving restrictions, and similar activity limits are extracted with their stated values and effective dates. Narrative phrasing counts too: a limit buried in a paragraph is captured the same as one on a work-status form.

Each restriction entry carries the provider's stated duty classification — sedentary, light, modified, or full duty — as documented, so you can follow the progression from sedentary-only to full release across the file. The classification is taken from what the provider wrote, not inferred.

All of them are listed. When two providers state conflicting restrictions over the same period — say, one orders sedentary duty while another releases to light duty — the conflict is flagged explicitly, with both sources cited side by side. The software surfaces the disagreement; resolving it stays with you.

Yes. Every extracted restriction carries a page-level citation back to the note or form it was stated in. Click it and the record opens at that passage. Anything ambiguous — an undated form, an illegible value — is flagged for review, never silently filled in.
