Abstract
This article describes the benefits of an in-house physical therapy pilot program. The program was initiated in 1994 to improve employees' functional capacity after occupational and nonoccupational musculoskeletal injury, shorten total disability time, use restrictive duty more productively, and reduce total disability costs. The pilot program's initial success led to the establishment of a permanent program.
