SSA Seeks Help Writing Decisions

The Social Security Administration has posted decision writing software for free downloading. The software can be used to help in writing decisions for Administrative Law Judges. The obvious idea is that those representing Social Security claimants will write the decisions for Social Security, removing some workload from the agency. However, there has no corresponding effort to adjust the cap on what may be paid those who represent claimants. That has not been adjusted in five years and has been eroded significantly by inflation.
