Abstract
Disability management and rehabilitation has achieved great strides over the past few decades. However, it has been seen that there is a lack of a common code of communication among professional working in the field of disability management. Absence of a common language regarding disability diagnosis can lead to gaps and redundancy often resulting in important information being missed from the diagnostic, assessment or evaluation reports. This further has an adverse impact on the intervention and training of such individuals. Hence, a strong need is felt to establish a mutual language of communication related to disability diagnosis and assessments. How to do so? The answer lies in using ICF codes and qualifiers for diagnosis and report writing in this field. The present study represents the benefits of using ICF towards estsablishing a common language for professionals in disability management and rehabilitation.
