The Social Security Administration (SSA) and the Department of Defense (DoD) are working together to improve access to disability benefits for the nation's Wounded Warriors, Service Members, Veterans and their dependents. The new DoD-SSA collaboration brings together requests for medical records from Social Security to a single location that has access to DoD records. The benefits of this new process include faster delivery of records and a reduction in the time it takes to make a medical decision on a disability claim.
