Abstract
The results are presented of a questionnaire survey testing opinion about care for disabled patients. Most respondents agreed that the disabled in the practice should be identified. The views of the doctors as to the possible methods of identification and how the information might be used are given. The point is made that further in-depth studies are necessary to determine the characteristics of practices with information systems and whether there are benefits to patients attending a practice with such facilities.
