| Abstract | Edwin J. López-Soto of Cornell University. The Supplemental Security Income (SSI) program provides cash benefits to individuals with disabilities who have limited income and resources. By contrast, the Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) program provides cash benefits to individuals with disabilities when a wage earner has paid into the Social Security trust fund through payroll deductions. In New York, receipt of SSI cash benefits guarantees automatic eligibility for Medicaid. The Fall 2002 issue of the Benefits Planner discussed the SSI income and resource rules in effect at that time. However, in January 2004, the Social Security Administration announced a number of proposed regulations to “simplify” the process of determining financial eligibility for SSI. In March 2004, the Social Security Protection Act of 2003 was signed into law. The final regulations were published in February In This Issue. |
