About:

The National Certification Examination for Workers’ Compensation Healthcare Providers: An Evidence-Based Approach (CWcHP) is an examination in the United States administered by the International Sports Professionals Association. This certification sets out to establish a standard of education and knowledge amongst Healthcare Professionals working with patients on workers’ compensation programs. It is the first certification of its kind for Physical Therapists, Occupational Therapists, and Certified Athletic Trainers involved in the rehabilitation of individuals on workers' compensation programs.

The National Certification Examination for Workers’ Compensation Healthcare Providers: An Evidence-Based Approach (CWcHP) was released to the public by the International Sports Professionals Association (ISPA) in June, 2010. The examination was developed over a one-year period. The examination was subjected to several stages of editing and focus group testing was conducted to assure content validity. The CWcHP is unique because it fills a need in healthcare that has not been previously addressed. The knowledge base required to deal with workers’ compensation cases is too exhaustive to be treated by individuals whom do not have the necessary knowledge to do so. The CWcHP certification assesses the level of knowledge and competency needed to rehabilitate injured individuals on workers’ compensation programs.
