This has reference to PWD patients who have been clinically diagnosed through their individual clinical abstracts or certifications from the the Municipal Health Office or its Satellite Offices or Stations at their respective Barangays. Needless to say, all of the required documentations are duly validated by City or Municipality Health Officers are entitled for the PWD ID Cards. Hence, may I request from your humble selves to dispense the attachments of the corresponding Clinical Abstracts considering the issuance of individual PWD IDs have been duly screened and evaluated. Henceforth, all PWD patients with IDs need not have to attach clinical abstract in purchasing over-the-counter medicines or basic commodities. I hope the NCDA managment shall heed to my request for hassle free. I hope my constructive suggestions merit your kind considerations and approval. Thank you.

Hi mary arlene,

I am from pasig and i got my pwe id at the health dept located at room 5, 5th floor city hall bldg. It is unfortunate, however, that you will have to get your purchase card for wet and dry goods from NCDA’s office at brgy. holy spirit in q.c.

regards

p.s.

you will have to bring with you a clinical abstract or certification on your disability and a 1×1 photo. Look for Ms. Necie

If R.A. 9442 is really an important law and NCDA is really empowered to implement it, why is it that NCDA is not doing any action to compel cities and municipalities not yet issuing PWD ID’s? Even establishments seem to ignore this law. Can the NCDA people do something to enforce the law? Not unless the people at the NCDA themselves do not know the law. I heard two people talking in the bus. They were discussing the question they posed to NCDA personnel they surveyed along the hall way of the NCDA office. It turned out that a lot of the people they asked do not even know that there is such a law. How I wished I had asked the two people’s identity and contact information so that I could have properly quoted them here and NCDA could have a good starting point in becoming more serious in implementing the act.

May we request your good agency to look on the violation of Mercury Drugs Store and St. Joseph Drug Store for not giving 20% discount to PWDs on the purchase of medicines. Assuming that their head office issued an order to all its branches that the 20% discount for PWDs will not be accepted, does this mean that PWDs can no longer avail said privileges. What is then now the intention of the framer of the said law in enacting this. Thus, this representation would like to request from your good agency to act immediately on this matters it is not only in our locality that we have already been experiencing this problem. Thank you
