Abstract

Purpose In India, people with disabilities (PWDs) have emerged as one of the most vulnerable populations during COVID-19, particularly those living in informal settlements. Although the government has made efforts to ensure healthcare access for all, these efforts seem inadequate considering that PWDs' needs vary greatly depending on type and degree of disability. The purpose of the study is to identify barriers in healthcare access for PWDs in Mumbai's informal settlements during COVID-19.
