This is old data (2002) from the Commissioner of Social Security as she testifies before Congress. This came from the Social Security website so it meets the previous poster's definition of accurate information. There is a waterfall chart on on page 25 showing AC allowances as 3% and remands as 25% and denials 70%. Not sure why I can't find current data. This chart is similar to the previous chart supplied in the NOSSCR material referenced above which has a footnote that the data came from SSA's ODPMI (Office of Disability Program Management Information) but I just can't find the raw data.
No doubt an argument will be made that this is invalid since it is 8 years old. But that is an argument, not a fact. This is fact.
I will resist the desire to make any more comments. |
Waterfall? It was closer to a flood. The numbers were outrageous, It's no wonder they started the DSI and the NPRM since then, at least today the chance of having a hearing and winning is a possibility. They were fact until 2005 when it became amended rules and laws.
