DWC Form PR-3 (Rev. 06-05) 2 American LegalNet, Inc. www.USCourtForms.com STATE OF CALIFORNIA Division of Workers' Compensation PRIMARY TREATING PHYSICIAN'S PERMANENT AND STATIONARY REPORT (PR-3) Subjective Findings: Provide your professional assessment of the subjective factors of disability, based on your evaluation of the patient's complaints, your examination, and other findings. List specific symptoms (e.g. pain right wrist) and their frequency, severity, and/or precipitating activity using the following definitions: Severity: Minimal pain - an annoyance, causes no handicap in performance. Slight pain - tolerable, causes some handicap in performance of the activity precipitating pain. Moderate pain - tolerable, causes marked handicap in the performance of the activity precipitating pain. Severe pain - precludes performance of the activity precipitating pain. Occasional - occurs roughly one fourth of the time. Intermittent - occurs roughly one half of the time. Frequent - occurs roughly three fourths of the time. Constant - occurs roughly 90 to 100% of time. Frequency: Precipitating activity: Description of precipitating activity gives a sense of how often a pain is felt and thus may be used with or without a frequency modifier. If pain is constant during precipitating activity, then no frequency modifier should be used. For example, a finding of "moderate pain on heavy lifting" connotes that moderate pain is felt whenever heavy lifting occurs. In contrast, "intermittent moderate pain on heavy lifting" implies that moderate pain is only felt half the time when engaged in heavy lifting. Yes Pre-Injury Capacity Are there any activities at home or at work that the patient cannot do as well now as could be done prior to this injury or illness? No Cannot determine If yes, please describe pre-injury capacity and current capacity (e.g. used to regularly lift a 30 lb. child, now can only lift 10 lbs.; could sit for 2 hours, now can only sit for 15 mins.) 1. 2. 3. 4.

Include restrictions which may not be relevant to current job but may affect future efforts to find work on the open labor market (e.g. include lifting restriction even if current job requires no lifting; include limits on repetitive hand movements even if current job requires none). 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Medical Treatment: Describe any continuing medical treatment related to this injury that you believe must be provided to the patient. ("Continuing medical treatment" is defined as occurring or presently planned treatment.) Also, describe any medical treatment the patient may require in the future. ("Future medical treatment" is defined as treatment which is anticipated at some time in the future to cure or relieve the employee from the effects of the injury.)
