A bill to provide that disability benefits under title II of the Social Security Act shall continue to be paid through the end of the administrative appeals process, and that periodic reviews of disability cases shall be carried out only to the extent determined to be appropriate.

Amends title II (Old Age, Survivors and Disability Insurance) of the Social Security Act to permit an individual who has been found to be no longer eligible for disability benefits and who has requested a hearing on such determination to elect to have the payment of such benefits continued during the period of appeal. Provides that if the decision upon appeal affirms the determination that the individual is not entitled to such benefits, any benefits paid pursuant to such election shall be considered overpayments. Provides that such benefit payments shall not be considered overpayments if the individual's appeal was made in good faith and if treating such payments as overpayments would work an undue financial hardship on the individual.

Makes the requirement that disability determinations under title II be reviewed at least every three years applicable only to the extent necessary to insure that the appropriate number of cases are reviewed. Requires the Secretary to determine the appropriate number of cases to be reviewed in each State. Requires the Secretary to report annually to specified congressional committees with respect to the Secretary's determinations.
