Disability Allowance - The application form and guidance notes are available on the SWD website. A doctor’s judgment is key to the process, while the application will mainly be handled by social workers. A Medical Assessment Form shall be submitted directly by a public hospital doctor to SWD. Parents may take a look at the form to see if the child has the conditions classified as “severely disabling”. Even if the child has been diagnosed by private practitioners, the disabling condition MUST BE certified by a doctor in the public system. Parents may provide private diagnostic reports to public hospital or clinic doctors for reference.
