{"abstract":"We are proposing to revise the criteria in the Listing of Impairments (the Listings) that we use to evaluate claims involving digestive impairments. We apply these criteria at step three of our sequential evaluation processes when you claim benefits based on disability under title II and title XVI of the Social Security Act (the Act). The proposed revisions will reflect advances in medical knowledge, treatment, and methods of evaluating digestive impairments. We also propose to remove listings that are redundant and only refer to other listings.","action":"Proposed rules.","agencies":[{"raw_name":"Social Security Administration","name":"Social Security Administration","id":470,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/social-security-administration","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/470","parent_id":null,"slug":"social-security-administration"}],"body_html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/html/2001/11/14/01-28455.html","cfr_references":[{"chapter":null,"citation_url":null,"part":404,"title":20}],"citation":"66 FR 57009","comment_url":null,"comments_close_on":"2002-01-14","correction_of":null,"corrections":[],"dates":"To be sure your comments are considered, we must receive them by January 14, 2002.","disposition_notes":null,"docket_ids":["Regulations No. 4"],"dockets":[],"document_number":"01-28455","effective_on":null,"end_page":57021,"executive_order_notes":null,"executive_order_number":null,"full_text_xml_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/xml/2001/11/14/01-28455.xml","html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2001/11/14/01-28455/revised-medical-criteria-for-evaluating-impairments-of-the-digestive-system","images":{},"images_metadata":{},"json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/documents/01-28455?publication_date=2001-11-14","mods_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/metadata/granule/FR-2001-11-14/01-28455/mods.xml","not_received_for_publication":null,"page_length":13,"page_views":{"count":374,"last_updated":"2026-06-04 12:15:14 -0400"},"pdf_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2001-11-14/pdf/01-28455.pdf","presidential_document_number":null,"proclamation_number":null,"public_inspection_pdf_url":null,"publication_date":"2001-11-14","raw_text_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/text/2001/11/14/01-28455.txt","regulation_id_number_info":{"0960-AF28":{"issue":"200404","html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/regulations/0960-AF28/revised-medical-criteria-for-evaluating-impairments-of-the-digestive-system-800f-","title":"Revised Medical Criteria for Evaluating Impairments of the Digestive System (800F)","xml_url":"http://www.reginfo.gov/public/do/eAgendaViewRule?pubId=200404&RIN=0960-AF28&operation=OPERATION_EXPORT_XML","priority_category":"Economically Significant"}},"regulation_id_numbers":["0960-AF28"],"regulations_dot_gov_info":{},"regulations_dot_gov_url":null,"significant":true,"signing_date":null,"start_page":57009,"subtype":null,"title":"Revised Medical Criteria for Evaluating Impairments of the Digestive System","toc_doc":"Digestive system impairments;  medical criteria evaluation","toc_subject":"Social security benefits:","topics":["Administrative practice and procedure","Blind","Disability benefits","Reporting and recordkeeping requirements","Social security"],"type":"Proposed Rule","volume":66}
