  • DI 81020.220 Electronic Continuing Disability Review (eCDR) Development
  • A. Requesting eCDR evidence
  • * Develop all necessary evidence (e.g., medical evidence of record, work history, beneficiary and/or third party questionnaires), using the Disability Determination Services (DDS) case processing system;
  • * Obtain Consultative Examination(s) (CE), if necessary;
  • * Develop necessary evidence if the beneficiary/recipient is participating in a vocational rehabilitation program
  • * Ensure all folder documents are saved to the Certified Electronic Folder (CEF).
  • NOTE: The Field Office (FO) sends any medical evidence received directly from the beneficiary to the DDS for scanning into the CEF.
  • B. Evaluating an Age 18 Redetermination
  • Use the information on the SSA-3368-BK to request and develop medical evidence and to establish the date of onset. The Medical Improvement Review Standard (MIRS) does not apply; instead, the Age 18 Redetermination uses the disability evaluation process for initial Title XVI adult claims.
  • C. eCDR Medical Improvement Not Expected (MINE) Development
  • In certain limited cases, which have a MINE diary, the DDS may process a continuance based on the CPD evidence in file and contact with the individual. In these cases, scan the pertinent previous medical information from the CPD folder into the CEF. For a list of the specific impairments in this category, see Medical Source Not Available - DI 28040.125B.2.a.
