translated from Spanish: CDMX launches card to expedite paperwork for people with disabilities

The government of Mexico City launched the Single Window and the Free Inclusive Card to expedite the procedures for people with disabilities. 
According to the authorities themselves, this will help to reduce attention spans and prevent corruption practices, as well as to record the data of the beneficiaries, to prevent them from loading their documentation.

When processing this card in the “Single Window for CDs in Mexico City”, the data of the applicant, who will have an electronic file, will be recorded to know the different benefits to which they are entitled.
The Secretary of Mobility, Andrés Lajous Loaeza, announced that from the second half of April, the Inclusive Card will be used in the Metro validators, and in mid-May in the other transport agencies (Metrobus, the Passenger Transport Network, as well as the Trolebus and Light Rail).

The director of the ADIP Intelligence Center, Eduardo Clark García Dobarganes, said that one of the problems that will fight the one-stop shop is corruption and falsification of health records, as well as speeding up the process.
 “What we are going to do is that for a person with a disability who previously had to make six face-to-face visits and not only six face-to-face visits to units, but also to keep a large dossier of documents, are reduced to three visits and that the time of attention from start to finish to access the benefits to which they are entitled is reduced, practically, by half, from 40 to 21 days,” he said.
