Count on Rehabilitation Services
Disability Adjudication Services What We Do Disability Adjudication Services (DAS), a specialized program of Rehabilitation Services, works with the Social Security Administration (SSA) to make disability determinations for Georgia citizens who apply for entitlement programs administered by the SSA. These programs include Disability Insurance (SSDI) for workers who pay FICA taxes, and Supplemental Security Income (SSI), a disability needs program. The number of claims handled increases annually. In FFY 2007, it is expected to surpass 120,000. Services We Provide DAS staff obtains pertinent
applicant information and uses the program legal criteria and policy standards
to decide eligibility for payments. In an average month, Social Security
disburses more than $235 million dollars in disability benefits to eligible
Georgia taxpayers.
