Project Number: p02-02c Paths to the Disability Insurance ProgramPrincipal Investigator: Monroe Berkowitz Project Type: Core Research Project Year: 02 Thematic Category: Economic Aspects of Disability Project Summary: The purpose of this project is to shed light on the experiences of applicants to and beneficiaries of the Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) program before they apply for benefits. Knowing what programs these individuals participated in or applied to prior to DI may help SSA's efforts to direct applicants to the world of work rather than a life of benefits. For many persons, filing an application for DI is the end of a long road. Identification of prior experience with programs such as Temporary
Disability Insurance, Workers' Compensation, Unemployment Insurance,
Private Disability Insurance and Welfare will be done utilizing
existing National Surveys. Project Deliverables: Final Technical Report: Paths to the Disability Insurance Program ( Word file - 458k) |
