Is Parkinson's Disease Eligible for Disability Benefits?
According to Clause 1, Article 2 of the Law on Persons with Disabilities 2010, a person with a disability is defined as an individual with impairments to one or more parts of the body or diminished functions, manifesting in the form of disabilities that make it difficult to work, live, or study.
On the other hand, Parkinson's disease is a neurological disorder that typically occurs when certain groups of cells in the brain degenerate, leading to a loss of control over muscle movements, making it difficult for individuals to walk, resulting in slower movements and causing rigidity or trembling in the limbs.
Thus, Parkinson's disease can be considered a type of disability. However, to receive disability benefits, you must undergo an assessment to determine the level of disability. If the disability is severe or particularly severe, you will be eligible for disability benefits.
Respectfully!
