RAILROAD RETIREMENT BOARD 

Agency Forms Submitted for OMB 

Review, Request for Comments 

In accordance with the Paperwork 

Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 

chapter 35), the Railroad Retirement 

Board (RRB) is forwarding an 

Information Collection Request (ICR) to 

the Office of Information and Regulatory 

Affairs (OIRA), Office of Management 

and Budget (OMB). Our ICR describes 

the information we seek to collect from 

the public. Review and approval by 

OIRA ensures that we impose 

appropriate paperwork burdens. 

The RRB invites comments on the 

proposed collections of information to 

determine (1) the practical utility of the 

collections; (2) the accuracy of the 

estimated burden of the collections; (3) 

ways to enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information that is the 

subject of collection; and (4) ways to 

minimize the burden of collections on 

respondents, including the use of 

automated collection techniques or 

other forms of information technology. 

Comments to the RRB or OIRA must 

contain the OMB control number of the 

ICR. For proper consideration of your 

comments, it is best if the RRB and 

OIRA receive them within 30 days of 

the publication date. 

1. Title and Purpose of Information 

Collection: Medical Reports; OMB 

3220–0038 

Under sections 2(a)(1)(iv) and 

2(a)(1)(v) of the Railroad Retirement Act 

(RRA) (45 U.S.C. 231a), annuities are 

payable to qualified railroad employees 

whose physical or mental condition 

makes them unable to (1) work in their 

regular occupation (occupational 

disability) or (2) work at all (total 

disability). The requirements for 

establishing disability and proof of 

continuing disability under the RRA are 

prescribed in 20 CFR 220. 

Annuities are also payable to (1) 

qualified spouses and widow(ers) under 

sections 2(c)(1)(ii)(C) and 2(d)(1)(ii) of 

the RRA who have a qualifying child 

who became disabled before age 22; (2) 

surviving children on the basis of 

disability under section 2(d)(1)(iii)(C), if 

the child’s disability began before age 

22; and (3) widow(er)s on the basis of 

disability under section 2(d)(1)(i)(B). To 

meet the disability standard, the RRA 

provides that individuals must have a 

permanent physical or mental condition 

that makes them unable to engage in any 

regular employment. 

Under section 2(d)(1)(v) of the RRA, 

annuities are also payable to remarried 

widow(er)s and surviving divorced 

spouses on the basis of, among other 

things, disability or having a qualifying 

disabled child in care. However, the 

disability standard in these cases is that 

found in the Social Security Act. That 

is, individuals must be unable to engage 

in any substantial gainful activity by 

reason of any medically determinable 

physical or mental impairment. The 

RRB also determines entitlement to a 

Period of Disability and entitlement to 

early Medicare based on disability for 

qualified claimants in accordance with 

section 216 of the Social Security Act. 

When making disability 

determinations, the RRB needs evidence 

from acceptable medical sources. The 

RRB currently utilizes Forms G–3EMP, 

Report of Medical Condition by 

Employer; G–197, Authorization to 

Disclose Information to the Railroad 

Retirement Board; G–250, Medical 

Assessment; G–250A, Medical 

Assessment of Residual Functional 

Capacity; G–260, Report of Seizure 

Disorder; RL–11B, Disclosure of 

Hospital Medical Records; RL–11D, 

Disclosure of Medical Records from a 

State Agency; RL–11D1, Request for 

Medical Evidence from Employers, and 

RL–250, Request for Medical 

Assessment, to obtain the necessary 

medical evidence. One response is 

requested of each respondent. 

Completion is required for all forms to 

obtain benefits except Form RL–11D1, 

which is voluntary. 

Previous Requests for Comments: The 

RRB has already published the initial 

60-day notice (88 FR 73054 on October 

24, 2023) required by 44 U.S.C. 

3506(c)(2). That request elicited no 

comments.
