Title: Disability Determinations by State Agency Disability Examiners (3510F) 
Abstract: We are revising our rules on a temporary basis to permit State agency disability examiners to make fully favorable determinations in certain claims for disability benefits under titles II and XVI of the Social Security Act without the approval of a State agency medical or psychological consultant. These changes apply only to claims we consider under our rules for quick disability determinations or under our compassionate allowance initiative.
