Agency Is Positioning Itself to Implement A New
Disability Determination Process, But Key Facets Are Still in
Development In March 2006,
the Social Security Administration published a rule that changes the
way claims for disability benefits will be processed and considered.
The rule established the Disability Service Improvement (DSI)
process, which is intended to improve accuracy, timeliness,
consistency, and fairness of decisions. This report details SSA's
progress in implementing the DSI process in its initial rollout
location in the Boston region.
