This bill aims to encourage people receiving Social Security Disability Insurance to return to work by establishing new incentives and support mechanisms. The legislation creates a classification system that categorizes disabled individuals based on whether their condition is expected to improve within 12 to 60 months or is expected to remain permanent, with time limits on benefits for those whose conditions are expected to improve. The bill requires periodic reviews of disability status for beneficiaries under age 63, with the frequency depending on their medical classification. It also establishes a new work program allowing eligible beneficiaries to remain employed while receiving reduced disability benefits, with their work earnings not counted against them, and requires the Social Security Administration to regularly inform beneficiaries about the existing Ticket to Work program. Additionally, the legislation creates a tax credit for employers who hire Social Security disability beneficiaries and authorizes increased funding for disability review processes, with implementation beginning in 2024.
