Continued Payment Benefit: Perspectives on the Medical-Social Evaluations
Abstract
This article reflects on the social and medical evaluation of people with disabilities for access to the Continued Payment Benefit under Brazil’s Organic Social Assistance law. The qualitative approach of the study allowed an analysis of changes in the reality, based on the work process of social assistants and examining doctors from the National Social Security Institute (INSS). Interviews were conducted with the professionals from the Social Security agency from Fortaleza, Ceara State. The interlocutors revealed an
absence of uniformity in the modus operandi of the evaluation process, which leads to a lack of uniformity in understanding the form of evaluating a person with a disability who requests the Benefit.
