Social Security: Observations on Demonstration Interviews With Disability Claimants

  Premium   Download PDF Now (28 pages)
Report Type Reports and Testimonies
Report Date Dec. 3, 1987
Report No. HRD-88-22BR
Subject
Summary:

In response to a congressional request, GAO reviewed how well the Social Security Administration (SSA) implemented and evaluated its disability determination projects.

GAO found that: (1) delays in obtaining management approval for program regulations and procedures and in contracting for the projects' evaluation slowed implementation; (2) SSA plans to evaluate the demonstration projects within states, taking into account states' differing operations; and (3) because of the variations between states, the SSA data will not be statistically representative of the nation. GAO noted that a 1985 state reconsideration project showed that face-to-face interviews did not reduce appeal or reversal rates at the administrative-law-judge level. GAO believes that SSA proposals were generally responsive to its earlier recommendations for ensuring careful and consistent implementation of the projects.
