IDs on the welfare service selected by the individual supplemented by a telephone interview, after which the recipient is assigned to their respective service. This leads to only 20% of persons with disabilities undergoing a needs assessment annually. In addition, confirmations of needs and assessment results often focus on financial aid and well-known welfare services such as assistive devices, rehabilitation buses, daycare centers, and residential care. Services aimed at promoting independent living and development in communities for persons with disabilities tend to have an extremely low percentage 5 when compared to other services. This highlights the problem that the current needs assessment and assignment mechanism and process is unable to fully gather information about the actual situations and needs of persons with disabilities and their families. The needs confirmation and assessment results also fail to do so. (2) To improve the effectiveness of correlation between related services and disability needs assessment, the MOHW plans to complete an overall review of the Interview Guide and Procedures of Welfare and Service Needs Assessment for People with Disabilities by 2021, while also improving the accessibility of related welfare service information. Thus, the NHRC will continue to closely monitor the results and effectiveness of the follow-up improvements to ensure they meet the actual situations and needs of persons with disabilities and their families, and to serve as a basis for the government in providing appropriate services and adequate resources. 5 The Control Yuan investigation report approved on March 17, 2020 points out that: i. The needs assessment system was implemented on July 11, 2012. Up to July 10, 2018, after confirmation with local competent authorities, only 6.6% of persons with disabilities needed welfare services, primarily full-day residential care services (64.0%), overnight residential care services (22.3%) and assistive device services (16.8%). ii. In 2018, after multiple difficulties incurred due to individuals being required to fill out forms at district offices, confirmation by counties and cities, plus distribution needs assessments, it was determined that those requesting welfare mainly utilized rehabilitation buses (59.22%), followed by assistive device services (20.37%), and lastly daytime and residential care (9.72%). Requests for other services were all below 4%. iii. Of persons who received disability IDs in 2018, less than 1% requested personal care and support services such as rehabilitation, community-based daytime care, daytime community facilities, independent living support services, community residence, familial foster care, cognitive restructuring, marriage and fertility counseling, after-school care, emotional support and behavior counseling. 13
