Evidence-Based
Biopsychosocial Rehabilitation

Abilita Services offers predictive psychosocial assessment tools, coupled with health coaching and training courses to support the implementation of a structured Biopsychosocial (BPS) Approach within health and injury management systems.

Rehabilitation Providers access these tools through Abilita eLearning and ABnet.

FINEOS Platform now operationalises the Abilita psychosocial assessment toolkit at scale for Life, Accident and Health Insurers. This model brings the triggering of an Abilita Assessment under the control of the insurer, using automated business logic to determine cases for triage screening with at-risk claimants offered an Abilita Assessment. Assessment results provide Case Manager guidance for referrals to an appropriate Provider for Psychosocial Matched Care.

Abilita Domains provide solution-focused biopsychosocial measurement and guidance.

A structured Biopsychosocial Rehabilitation system is the only way to accumulate critical psychosocial data throughout a personal injury claim. Abilita uses triage tools to first identify psychosocial risk and then comprehensive self-report questionnaires to identify and measure baseline, influential biopsychosocial factors. Impact and Review assessments are conducted to measure the change in those factors during and after the planned intervention. Online automated reporting provides a record of the measurements at various stages.

When this data contributes to a central database it supports evaluation of interventions and informs Injury Management policy and practice.

The structured Biopsychosocial Approach delivers strong health and work outcomes.

Results immediately after coaching and before final work outcome recorded, reveal that

• 47% reduction in Abilita score (early intervention) results in 72% increase in work hours.
• 34% reduction in Abilita score (including long term) results in 42% increase in work hours.
• 35% reduction in claim costs for first 26 weeks compared to usual claim costs
• 96% of participants report they are either ‘mostly’ or ‘very’ satisfied with this rehabilitation experience.
