Railroad Retirement Board August 1, 2008 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

The Railroad Retirement Board proposes to remove the Listing of Impairments within our regulations. The Board's Listing of Impairments (the Listings) are out of date and no longer reflect advances in medical knowledge, treatments, and methods of evaluation. The proposed amendments will provide public notice as to how the Railroad Retirement Board will determine disability after removal of the Listings.
