Title: Reestablishing Uniform National Disability Adjudication Provisions (3502F) 
Abstract: We are eliminating the remaining portions of part 405 of our rules, which we now use for initial disability claims in our Boston region. We will use the same rules for disability claims in the Boston region that we use for disability adjudications in the rest of the country, including those rules that apply to the administrative law judge (ALJ) and Appeals Council (AC) levels of our administrative review process in parts 404 and 416 of our rules.
