002.02(C)(ii)(2)(c) SOCIAL SECURITY DETERMINES THE INDIVIDUAL IS NOT DISABLED.

If the state review team (SRT) has determined the individual is disabled but, the Social Security Administration (SSA) later determines that the individual is not disabled due to lack of severity or the ability to engage in substantial gainful activity, then the Department will abide by the decision of the Social Security Administration. If the individual has filed an appeal with the Social Security Administration (SSA), the individual must be considered disabled through the review period established by the state review team (SRT). If no appeal with the Social Security Administration (SSA) is filed, then the disability requirement cannot be considered to be met.
