Disability insurance and supplemental security income; qualifications of medical professionals evaluating mental impairments--SSA. Final rules.

Section 8 of the Social Security Disability Benefits Reform Act of 1984, Pub. L. 98-460, requires that we make every reasonable effort to have a qualified psychiatrist or psychologist complete the medical portion of the case review and any residual functional capacity (RFC) assessment in unfavorable initial determinations in mental impairment cases. This provision is effective for initial disability determinations made on or after December 9, 1984. As a result of this new provision of the law, we are adding this requirement to the Social Security Administration (SSA) regulations and also explaining in these regulations the qualifications necessary to be considered a qualified psychologist and what we will consider as every reasonable effort to obtain the services of a qualified psychiatrist or psychologist.

Experiments and demonstration projects under the disability insurance and supplemental security income programs--Social Security Administration. Proposed rule.

The Social Security Administration (SSA) is proposing to amend its regulations to implement section 505 of the Social Security Disability Amendments of 1980 (Pub. L. 96-265). That section requires the Secretary to conduct experiments and demonstration projects to test alternative conditions and limitations for stimulating the return to work of disabled title II beneficiaries and to otherwise improve the administration of the title II disability program. To the extent necessary to thoroughly evaluate these alternative methods, the Secretary may waive compliance with benefit requirements under titles II and XVIII of the Social Security Act. Section 505 also authorizes the Secretary to waive or add to the requirements, conditions, or limitations in title XVI of the Act to the extent necessary to conduct experimental, pilot, and demonstration projects which are likely to promote the objective or improve the administration of the SSI program.
