Profile of Disabled-Worker Beneficiaries
PrefaceSince 1956, the Social Security program has provided cash benefits to people with disabilities. This annual report provides program and demographic information on the people who receive those benefits. Our first edition presents a series of detailed tables on the three categories of beneficiaries--disabled workers, disabled widow(er)s, and disabled adult children. The basic topics covered are:
In future editions, we plan to add more information about disabled-worker families, disabled beneficiaries who work, applications and their outcome, suspension and termination of benefits, reinstatement of benefits, workers' compensation and public disability benefit offset, and continuing disability reviews. The Annual Statistical Supplement to the Social Security Bulletin was our first publication to present data on the disabled and it continues to do so. The historical statistics in this report came directly from that publication. Most of the other data are from the Social Security Administration's (SSA's) program records. Information on the income of disabled beneficiaries was obtained from the 1996 Survey of Income and Program Participation (SIPP). The SIPP data were linked to information from SSA's December 1998 program records that was used to identify survey respondents who were disability beneficiaries. Linda Martin, Cece Chin, and Carolyn A. Harrison compiled this report. The Annual Statistical Supplement and other publications on the Social Security and Supplemental Security Income programs are available on our Web site at www.ssa.gov/policy.

Acting Associate Commissioner for Research, Evaluation, and Statistics September 2001 ErrataThe original print version of this report contained several errors. The data for the rows under Mental NotesThe Old-Age and Survivors Insurance (OASI) program provides benefits to retired workers and their dependent family members and to survivors of deceased workers. The Disability Insurance (DI) program provides benefits to disabled workers, their spouses, and children (whether or not disabled). Benefits are paid from the OASI and DI trust funds. However, not all disabled beneficiaries are paid from the DI trust fund. All disabled widow(er)s' and most disabled adult children's benefits are paid from the OASI trust fund. Persons receiving disability benefits from either trust fund are referred to in this report as Social Security beneficiaries. Numbers presented in our tables may differ slightly from other published statistics because we used 100 percent data files for most tables and used a 1 percent file for calendar year 2000 awards data. All years are calendar years unless otherwise specified. Table of ContentsThe following files are available for this document in the given formats:
