Download or read book Receipt of Multiple Benefits by Disabled Worker Beneficiaries written by L. Scott Muller and published by BiblioGov. This book was released on 2013-06 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1971, 44 percent of workers who had been currently entitled to social security disability insurance benefits (SSDI) for 1 year or more received benefits from at least one income source in addition to SSDI. These recipients of multiple benefits (RMB's) were found to have average benefits from SSDI which were greater than the average SSDI benefit for those who did not receive income from these additional sources. On the average, total benefits to RMB's were double the benefits paid to those who received only SSDI. The combined benefits for overlappers produced median replacement rates for nonoverlappers. The rate of receipt of replacement rates in excess of 80 percent of predisability earnings was 70 percent larger for persons who were RMB's than for those who were not. Based on the present research, consideration of replacement rates based solely on SSDI benefits substantially understates the extent to which benefits from public and private programs actually replace predisability earnings. Since replacement rates based solely on SSDI benefits are generally higher for persons receiving only SSDI than for persons who receive multiple benefits, employing policies which cap replacement rates based only on SSDI benefits may only serve to increase the differential in the total replacement of predisability earning which exists between those who receive multiple benefits and those who do not. Increasing this differential could be considered undesirable from both the adequacy and equity viewpoints.

Download or read book Limits on Receipt of Multiple Disability Benefits Could Save Millions written by and published by . This book was released on 1981 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: GAO was requested to study the prevalence of multiple receipt of disability benefits from the Social Security Disability Insurance (DI) and other programs, as well as various approaches to better coordinate the overall benefits provided to an individual for the purpose of precluding them from exceeding the worker's predisability earnings. A sample of social security recipients were matched against 8 of the largest Federal programs, 12 State or local government disability programs, and the workers' compensation programs of the States and territories. The matched programs represented about 98 percent of the total Federal beneficiaries and about 38 percent of the total State and local government beneficiaries. The results showed that about 16 percent of the disability insurance beneficiaries received benefits from one or more of the matched programs and about 41 percent also received aggregate benefits exceeding their predisability earnings. GAO estimates that about $149 million could be saved annually if the workers' compensation offset formula were extended to the Civil Service, military, Black Lung Benefits, and State and local government employees' disability programs. In addition, extending the offset to the Veterans Compensation program could save an additional $283 million annually.

This book was released on 1981 with total page 18 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In performing our review, we determined that about 4,900 Federal, State, and local programs include disability benefits. Forty-five of these programs are administered by the Federal Government. We defined Federal disability programs as those exempt from the Employee Retirement Income Security Act or those supported by tax revenue. During fiscal year 1980, these Federal programs paid over $37 billion in benefits to over 11 million beneficiaries. The most recent data on the State or local programs gathered by the Bureau of the Census in 1977 showed that for 3,075 State and local government benefit programs about 152,000 persons were receiving annual disability benefits of about $600 million. Data were not available on the other State and local programs. A sample of 11,669 DI recipients on the rolls as of March 1980 was matched against the disability rolls of the 8 largest Federal retirement systems, 12 large State and local government retirement systems, and the workers' compensation programs of the States and territories. The programs matched represented about 98 percent of the total Federal beneficiaries and about 38 percent of the total State and local government beneficiaries. The results showed that 1,913 (about 16 percent) of the DI beneficiaries also received beneftis from one or more of the matched programs. About 41 percent of these beneficiaries received aggregate benefits exceeding their predisability earnings. (Author).
Download or read book Improving the Social Security Representative Payee Program written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2007-10-17 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than 7 million recipients of Social Security benefits have a representative payee-a person or an organization-to receive or manage their benefits. These payees manage Old Age, Survivors and Disability Insurance funds for retirees, surviving spouses, children, and the disabled, and they manage Supplemental Security Income payments to disabled, blind, or elderly people with limited income and resources. More than half of the beneficiaries with a representative payee are minor children; the rest are adults, often elderly, whose mental or physical incapacity prevents them from acting on their own behalf, and people who have been deemed incapable under state guardianship laws. The funds are managed through the Representative Payee Program of the Social Security Administration (SSA). The funds total almost $4 billion a month, and there are more than 5.3 million representative payees. In 2004 Congress required the commissioner of the SSA to conduct a one-time survey to determine how payments to individual and organizational representative payees are being managed and used on behalf of the beneficiaries.1 To carry out this work, the SSA requested a study by the National Academies, which appointed the Committee on Social Security Representative Payees. This report is the result of that study. Improving the Social Security Representative Payee Program: Serving Beneficiaries and Minimizing Misuse (1) assesses the extent to which representative payees are not performing their duties in accordance with SSA standards for representative payee conduct, (2) explains whether the representative payment policies are practical and appropriate, (3) identifies the types of representative payees that have the highest risk of misuse of benefits, and (4) finds ways to reduce the risk of misuse of benefits and ways to better protect beneficiaries.
