National Ability Supports System (NASS)
NASS contains national data relating to HSE disability-funded services provided to service users.
Data is recorded by service providers, both HSE and non-HSE.
**Purpose:** To collect data on the HSE-funded disability services that people use or require in a 5-year period.
New services provided to service users aged over 65 years are out of scope as these are managed by HSE Older Persons’ rather than Disability services.
**Coverage:** National.
NASS data collection is carried out on an annual basis.
