HEALTH HIPPO: EVALUATIONS OF SOCIAL SECURITY DISABILITY
The Social Security Administration administers two programs that provide
benefits based on disability: the Social Security Disability Insurance program (SSDI) (Title II) and the Supplemental Security Income
program (SSI) (Title XVI). Title II provides benefits to individuals who are insured under the Act by virtue of their
contributions to the Social Security trust fund through tax on their earnings. Title XVI provides payments to individuals
who are disabled and have limited income and resources. What follows is a linked outline to legal resources organized under
the Office of Disability Adjudication and Review's (formerly Office of Hearings and Appeals) five-step sequential
evaluation process for reviewing social security disability claims, as set out in 20 CFR 404.1520. The rules under Title II and XVI are
identical in most cases, so only title II rules are linked through this website.
