The word appears on none of the 414 pages of the Disability Tests book. The two routes through which the condition is assessed anyway, and what that means for your documentation.
The full scale of Section 34(ב): 0, 10, 20, 30, 50, 70, 100 — with no 40% and no 60%. And the seven criteria the committee examines.
Section 9 works as a matrix: ejection fraction against functional class. The official tables, the NYHA scale, and why one cell says “no disability”.
The official table of Section 4, what the target organs are, and why complications such as retinopathy and neuropathy are not always added separately.
Section 21 is one sentence long and gives no percentage for cancer itself — it refers to the impairment left in the organ. The official tables for breast, lung and kidney removal and for transplantation.
The full official table of Section 37, and why a disc herniation on an MRI does not set the percentage. What the committee measures in the room and what your file needs to contain.
You do not need shrapnel to be injured. Indirect injury, anxiety and PTSD are recognised as hostile-action casualties — including for people with no physical injury. The signs, the documentation and recognition.

Received a refusal or a low percentage? It is not the end of the road. What can be appealed, the critical timelines, how to file and what improves your chances.
The number that decides everything: how disability percentages are determined, what the Schedule of Impairments is, what the weighted calculation is, the difference between medical disability and degree of incapacity, and how many percent you need for an allowance.
Beyond the allowance lie dozens of benefits: municipal tax and electricity discounts, income tax exemption, benefits in education, the right to claim against the Palestinian Authority and more. How to realise all of them.
