A problem of even greater concern for the cities and counties of Taiwan is that assistance for middle- and low-income households with handicapped persons, which has been provided for over three years now, has suddenly been expanded by the Ministry of the Interior. The MOI simply eliminated the upper limit on incomes for eligibility for the program. As a result cities and counties find that the amount they originally budgeted is inadequate.
目前更讓各縣市頭痛的，是已發放三年多的中低收入戶殘障津貼及輪椅等輔具補助，因為內政部降低申請門檻，取消定存上限等規定，並新納入精神病患者，導致各縣市原先編列的配合預算不夠。
