7. Review of the Disability Hearing
Officer’s Reconsidered Determinations
Before It Is Issued—20 CFR 404.913–
404.918, 404.1512–404.1515, 404.1589,
416.912–416.915, 416.989, 416.1413–
416.1418, 404.918(d) and 416.1418(d)—
0960–0709. After SSA approves
claimants for Social Security disability
benefits or SSI payments, SSA
periodically conducts a continuing
disability review (CDR). During a CDR,
the agency reviews claimants’ status to
see if their condition improved to the
point they are capable of working, and
if so, to reduce or stop their benefits or
payments. If SSA notifies a claimant
that the agency will stop benefits or
payments, the claimant may appeal the
determination. The first appeal gives the
claimant the opportunity for a full
evidentiary hearing before a disability
hearing officer (DHO).
For quality review purposes, a Federal
component reviews a small sample of
DHO’s determinations. It is rare for the
reviewing component to reverse a DHO
determination favorable to the claimant.
Before SSA can issue an unfavorable
determination, we give the claimant 10
days to provide a written statement
explaining why SSA should not stop
payments. The written statement is the
information SSA collects in this
process. Respondents are CDR claimants
whose payments are going to cease.
Type of Request: Extension of an
OMB-approved information collection.
Number of Respondents: 8.
Frequency of Response: 1.
Average Burden per Response: 60
minutes.
Estimated Annual Burden: 8 hours.
