Cardiovascular Disability: Updating the Social Security Listings
English
By (author): Board on the Health of Select Populations Committee on Social Security Cardiovascular Disability Criteria Institute of Medicine
The Social Security Administration (SSA) uses a screening tool called the Listing of Impairments to identify claimants who are so severely impaired that they cannot work at all and thus immediately qualify for benefits. In this report, the IOM makes several recommendations for improving SSA's capacity to determine disability benefits more quickly and efficiently using the Listings.
