Abstract

The social state is defined as a state model that intervenes in the social space in order to develop the citizens, especially people who are in need and disadvantaged in the society, by protecting their social rights (Seyyar, 2008: 422). The social policies on disability, one of the groups that have difficulties in handling their lives as compared to other people, are important in achieving the aims of the social state. Kayalıdere and Şahin (2014: 57) states that one of the tools the social state uses to achieve its goal is social protection expenditures. The aim of this study is to address health expenditures for disabilities. For this purpose, firstly the concept of social state and in this context social policy are discussed. Following this conceptual introduction, health expenditures for disabilities were evaluated.
