Overview of the National Statistical Survey on Disability Welfare

This document provides an overview of the national statistical survey on disability welfare and related areas. The survey aims to understand the provision of disability welfare services and related services and the circumstances of their users, and to obtain basic materials necessary for planning and designing systems, advancing policies, and administering government operations.

The document organizes statistical tables on service provision, service use, user attributes, establishments, and regions. Through individual tables, it provides a structure that allows multiple aspects related to disability welfare and related areas to be examined.

The tabulations are based on information from local governments and other entities recorded in the database. The original text also indicates some scope that is not included in the tabulation coverage.

The statistical tables are divided by service type, user category, establishment status, region, and other classifications, and cover provision status, number of users, number of establishments, service details, and other items. Multiple tables organize the same subjects from different perspectives.

The notation distinguishes cases such as not applicable, unable to be tabulated, and inappropriate for counting by using different symbols. In addition, totals may not match the sum of the breakdowns because of the units and rounding procedures used in each table. The telephone number of the department responsible for statistics is provided as contact information.
