Supporting Documentation and Forms


If you have a visible or readily apparent disability, documentation is not required to initiate a request for ADA accommodations. If your disability is invisible, documentation is required. However, acceptable documentation varies based on:

  • The type of disability/condition
  • The duration of the impairment
  • The urgency of the need for accommodation
  • The employee’s access to medical documentation

The following documents may be sufficient to initiate a request for accommodation:

  • Medical visit summary or hospital discharge summary that discloses the associated diagnosis and provides a summary of the individual’s current health status.
  • Screenshot of diagnosis list - view must clearly show the person is logged into their own patient medical record.
  • Letter from a licensed healthcare provider that discloses diagnosis, current level of functioning, extent of impairments, and recommendations.
  • A completed DAS Medical Inquiry Form or Parking Accommodation Medical Form
