For Providers

Electronically Submitting Evidence

Medical providers (including hospitals, clinics, doctors, and health information managers), school professionals, attorneys, and claimant representatives can electronically upload records and documentation through the Social Security’s Electronic Records Express system. The evidence that is sent is automatically associated with the claimant’s unique disability claim folder, which will immediately be available to DDS.

For more information on the online system, or for instructions on faxing necessary records, click below.

Becoming a Consultative Examination Provider

Doctor talking to patient

When a decision cannot be made based on evidence received from treating sources, DDS authorizes and funds a consultative examination.

Community-based physicians, psychologists and facilities supply these services.

For more information on becoming a consultative examination provider, please email our Professional Relations Manager, Kyle Lawrence.
