Chronic Condition Disclosure

Meaning

Chronic Condition Disclosure is the formal, voluntary communication by an individual to their employer or institution regarding the presence of a long-term, persistent health issue, such as a complex endocrine disorder like Type 1 Diabetes or chronic adrenal insufficiency. This necessary communication serves to formally initiate the process for securing legally protected workplace accommodations or accessing specific health benefits. The disclosure must be accurate, concise, and typically substantiated by current medical documentation to validate the condition’s chronicity and associated functional limitations.
