Title: Revised Medical Criteria for Evaluating Growth Impairments (3163P) 
Abstract: Section 100.00, Growth Impairments, of appendix 1 to subpart P of part 404 of our regulations describe growth impairments that are considered severe enough to prevent a person from doing any gainful activity, or for a child claiming supplemental Security Income payments under title XVI, that cause marked and severe functional limitations. We are proposing to revise the criteria in this section to ensure that the medical evaluation criteria are up-to-date and consistent with the latest advances in medical knowledge and treatment.
