A modern one-stop support platform for disabled individual ID cards and applications for disability grants has been launched in collaboration with the Public Health Ministry.
The Centara Life Government Complex Hotel &, Convention Center’s Chaeng Watthana Road launch ceremony took place yesterday in Lak Si area.
Varawut Silpa-archa, chancellor of social development and human security, gave an update on the government’s plan to improve the lives of disabled people, as well as details on the one-stop service platform, which will increase convenience and lower costs.
He claimed that the software was made as part of a project to improve access to social services for the handicapped.
According to Mr. Varawut, the virtual project has two stages.
He stated that the goal of the initial stage is to facilitate rapid registration for people with disabilities using a platform that remotely assesses and confirms people’s disabilities.
The method for creating applications for disabled individual ID cards is connected to the platform.
The program is connected to another technique for submitting requests for disability grants in the next stage.
The goal of the program is to make it simple for the disabled to record as a handicapped person without having to travel to the Social Development and Human Security Ministry’s statewide workplaces.
Additionally, it may make it unnecessary for them to go to a doctor to have a disability evaluation, which will lower their travel costs.
40 hospitals across the country have been trained by the Public Health Ministry to take part in the site’s pilot phase.
Mr. Varawut claimed that his department values all different demographic groups in light of what he perceived as social inequalities and demographic shifts.
He also provided an explanation of his agency’s” 5×5″ strategy for addressing the ongoing population problems, which includes a strategy designed to provide opportunities and benefit for people with disabilities.
The one- prevent support for the crippled is part of the 5×5 plan, he said.
