State disability determinations services collect the information SSA needs to administer our disability program. For the purposes of this ICR, we divide this information into three categories: 1) consultative examinations (a/b/c); 2) medical evidence of record; and 3) pain/other symptoms/impairment. Respondents are individuals, private sector, and State and local governments. We are submitting a non-substantive Change Request to request a new call script for use for CE video teleconferences specifically for the current COVID-19 emergency.

Due to the COVID-19 situation, we cannot schedule our current in person psychiatric and psychological examinations, nor do all of our CE providers have access to HIPAA-compliant video technology for remote exams. To ensure we can still hold necessary examinations for claimants, we are implementing a new call script to allow for the use of non-secure technologies during an emergency period when HHS has relaxed enforcement of the HIPAA privacy rule. We expect to use this call script only once per claimant, as needed, for psychological CE examinations, and only during the COVID-19 emergency. This new call script increases the total public reporting burden for this ICR from 4,501,166 hours to 4,501,999 hours.
