- W2026161036 abstract "Disability assessment medicine is the specialty primarily concerned with the medical assessment of individuals in order to provide objective medical advice to decision makers. These decision makers may be benefit administrators, employers, or “finders of fact” in the insurance industry. Disability assessment is also a key part of advising employers in relation to the Disability Discrimination Act 1995 and local authorities in relation to the provision of community care services.In carrying out this function, doctors act as specialist medical disability analysts. The role of a disability analyst differs from the more familiar clinical role of reaching a diagnosis and arranging treatment: the disability analyst's primary function is to make an assessment of how a person is affected by his or her disease or disability and to relate this to the legislative or policy requirements or the specific issues raised by the decision maker. Disability analysts also have an important role to play in educating health professionals and managers about disability issues.#### Decision makers in disability assessment##### Who is a decision maker?The decision maker is usually the “finder of fact,” who decides a question (say of entitlement to a benefit or service) by weighing the available evidence in accordance with the relevant legislation or policy specification#### What decision makers expect from a medical reportThe following elements are considered essential:#### Pros and cons of disability assessment medicine##### Advantages" @default.
