Information from medical records and telephone interviews were collected on 94 patients who had enrolled in three post-acute rehabilitation programs for the treatment of traumatic brain injury. Those patients who performed better on neuropsychological testing returned to work sooner (within two years post-injury), had less severe injuries, and were more likely to return to the same employer post-injury. Furthermore, those patients who returned to work with the same employer were more likely to be employed and earned a greater hourly wage than those who returned to a new employer.
