Socrates
The Socrates system is a national system for managing the provision of Ministry of Health Disability Support Services.
The National Needs Assessment and Service Coordination Information (SOCRATES) is used by Ministry-funded Needs Assessment and Service Coordination (NASC) agencies to record information about clients who are eligible for Disability Support Services (DSS).
