Disability is now understood as a dynamic process, and Social Security must comprehend that process to plan adequately for the times ahead. The Dynamics of Disability provides expert analysis and recommendations in key areas: Understanding the current social, economic, and physical environmental factors in determining eligibility for disability benefits. Developing and implementing a monitoring system to measure and track trends in work disability. Improving the process for making decisions on disability claims. Building Social Security (TM)s capacity for conducting needed research. This book provides a wealth of detail on the workings of the Social Security disability program, recent and emerging disability trends, issues and previous experience in researching disability, and more. It will be of primary interest to federal policy makers, the Congress, and researchers "and it will be useful to state disability officials, medical and rehabilitation professionals, and the disability community.Disability evaluationUnited StatesSocial securityUnited StatesDisability evaluationSocial security616.07/5Wunderlich Gooloo S1088603Rice Dorothy P1114372Amado Nicole L1809959Institute of Medicine (U.S.).Committee to Review the Social Security Administration's Disability Decision Process Research.National Research Council (U.S.).Committee on National Statistics.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910960612803321The Dynamics of disability4361016UNINA
