Abstract: SSA measures the performance of the State Disability Determination Services (DDSs) in the area of quality of documentation and determinations on claims. In mental disability claims, a Psychiatric Review Technique Form (PRTF) is completed by DDS. The SSA-3023 is only completed when an adjudicating component's PRTF is in the file; an SSA-3023 is required for each completed PRTF. Form SSA-3023 is used by the regional review component to facilitate SSA's medical/psychological consultants' review of the PRTF for quality purposes. The respondents are medical/psychological consultants who review the Psychiatric Review Technique Form for quality purposes.
