One of the Social Security Administration's (SSA) priorities is to assist
individuals with disabilities achieve independence by helping them to take
advantage of employment opportunities. As part of that effort, SSA pays
providers of rehabilitation services under certain circumstances.
Such payments are based on program-specific values referred to as
Payment Calculation Bases.
SSA's Office of the Chief Actuary
determines the Payment Calculation Bases for Title II and Title XVI of
the Social Security Act, in accordance with the provisions of the
Ticket to Work and Work Incentives Improvement Act of 1999.
These bases are defined more specifically in
section 411.500
of the Code of Federal Regulations.
