Abstract

This viewpoint advocates for significant reforms in the disability certification guidelines for mental illnesses in India. Currently, two years duration of illness is required before certification, which delays essential support. The proposed model emphasizes assessing the functional impact of conditions, aligns with global standards, and suggests regular reassessments to improve accessibility and inclusivity in mental health services.
