(SSA), will discuss the value of health care information technology. His comments included the following:
- Every disability benefit claimant must have their medical records reviewed. Once the claimant authorizes medical record release, they are typically received by fax today. Fifteen million request for medical records from over 500,000 physicians and 6000 hospitals are processed every year.

- Improved health care IT will give the SSA the ability to make claims related decisions faster, dramatic reducing required processing time by up to one-third.
- A key challenge is for us to identify data standards that can be used across multiple different business processes.
