Prima Facie Verification

RSDI disability benefits

Railroad Retirement disability benefits

Medicare (See exception below)

For SSI approvals only, the SDX disability/blind date verifies when disability began.

If no prima facie evidence exists, verify disability or blindness by means of a disability decision from DAS or SMEU.

Receipt of Medicare as a result of a kidney transplant, renal failure or dialysis is not prima facie evidence of disability. The Medicare number will have a T as the Beneficiary Identification Code (BIC).
