I am receiving support from Pioneer Generation Disability Assistance Scheme or Foreign Domestic Worker Grant. Why can’t I qualify for ElderShield claims?

The ElderShield claims criterion is stricter as ElderShield is intended for severe disability, whereas the other schemes such as Pioneer Generation Disability Assistance Scheme and Foreign Domestic Worker Grant are meant for moderate disability. This means that individuals should demonstrate that they require significantly more assistance before qualifying for ElderShield payouts.
Nonetheless, the Government recognises that it is possible to establish some equivalence across selected disability assessment tools, and is currently studying how this can be done without compromising the robustness of the ElderShield claims assessment process.
