Part B - Diagnostic Criteria (To be completed by a duly registered medical practitioner trained to diagnose the applicable disability or to express an opinion on it)
Your patient must be a person with a disability as defined in Section 6B(1) of the Act. In this section –“Disability” means a moderate to severe limitation of
any person’s ability to function or perform daily activities as a result of a physical, sensory, communication, intellectual or mental
impairment, if the limitation—
(a) has lasted or has a prognosis of lasting more than a year; and
(b) is diagnosed by a duly registered medical practitioner in accordance with criteria prescribed by the Commissioner.
“Moderate to severe limitation”, in the context of disability means a significant restriction on a person’s ability to function or perform one or more basic daily
activities after maximum correction, except where indicated. Maximum correction in this context means appropriate therapy, medication and use of devices.
The diagnostic criteria seek to assess the functional impact of the impairment on a person’s ability to perform daily activities and not to diagnose a medical
condition.
Please complete the section(s) that apply to your patient.
Please remember to complete and sign Part C of this form.
