Social Security Administration December 14, 2009 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

Revised Medical Criteria for Evaluating Endocrine Disorders
Document Number: E9-29671
Type: Proposed Rule
Date: 2009-12-14
Agency: Social Security Administration, Agencies and Commissions
We propose to revise the criteria in the Listing of Impairments (the listings) that we use to evaluate claims under titles II and XVI of the Social Security Act (Act) involving endocrine disorders in adults and children. The proposed revisions reflect advances in medical knowledge, information we received from medical experts, comments we received from the public in response to an Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (ANPRM) and at an outreach policy conference, and our adjudicative experience.
Revised Procedures and Criteria for Payment of Vocational Rehabilitation Services Under the Cost Reimbursement Program
Document Number: E9-29669
Type: Proposed Rule
Date: 2009-12-14
Agency: Social Security Administration, Agencies and Commissions
We are requesting your comments on whether and how we should revise our rules governing payment for vocational rehabilitation (VR) services under the cost reimbursement program. Our current regulations do not reflect programmatic changes resulting from the new regulations we issued in May of 2008 for the Ticket to Work and Self-Sufficiency Program (Ticket to Work program). We are requesting your comments as part of our ongoing effort to ensure that the regulations governing cost reimbursement for VR services are current and support our other return to work programs, specifically the Ticket to Work and Work Incentive programs. If we propose specific revisions, we will publish a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking in the Federal Register.
