SUBJECT: AGREEMENT BETWEEN SOCIAL SERVICE DEPARTMENT AND
SOCIAL SECURITY ADMINISTRATION (Ref: #20-547)
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
I. RECOMMENDED ACTION
Authorize the Director, Social Service Department, or designee to
sign a nonfinancial agreement (#20-547) between the Social Service
Department and the Social Security Administration (SSA) for the
period August 1, 1985 through July 31, 1986 to enable the Department
to utilize SSA' s new benefit verification system known as
Third Party Query (TPQY) .
II . FINANCIAL IMPACT
None.
III . REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION
County eligibility workers, as part of their ongoing processing of
public assistance cases, contact the Social Security Administration
on a continuous basis for information about Social Security benefits,
MediCare eligibility, SSI checks, etc. Under SSA' s new TPQY system,
the worker will simply prepare a key-punch card and send it to SSA,
whereupon it will be processed through a computer and the answer
promptly sent back to the County worker. Significant time savings
for both agencies will thereby be achieved and the efficiency of
workers increased.
