#ReassessMS
There is an increasing trend of failure to get disability certificates on-ground, there are systemic barriers such as non-availability of neurologists in the assessment panel, making PwMS wait in long lines in the extreme hot or cold weathers (making their symptoms worse)
What adds to the woes is the lack of awareness about MS!
We want to change this! We want to amplify these concerns and bring to the forefront our need to review the current Assessment Guidelines in the RPWD Act – 2016 so that it becomes more inclusive and applicable to the actual person for whom it was created in the first place!
