        section 1905(y) of the Social Security Act (as added by 
        subsection (a)) to improve the effectiveness of the application 
        of such percentage in addressing the needs of States during 
        periods of national economic downturn, including 
        recommendations for--
                    (A) improvements to the factors that begin and end

                costs incurred by States during such periods, as well 
                as to the effects of any other specific economic 
                indicators that the Comptroller General determines 
                appropriate.

SOLUTION: Amends title XIX (Medicaid) of the Social Security Act to authorize an automatic increase in the federal medical assistance percentage (FMAP) for any eligible state during periods of national economic downturn.

Directs the Comptroller General to analyze and report to Congress on previous periods of national economic downturn, including the most recent one, and the past and projected effects of temporary increases in the Medicaid FMAP with respect to them.

determined by the Commissioner. In exchange for suspending their social 
security disability insurance program application, these applicants 
would be offered a package of benefits, including targeted vocational 
and health interventions, wage subsidies based on how much the 
applicants can work and earn, and, if appropriate, an emergency cash 
diversion grant.

SEC. 7. STATE DISABILITY REFORM DEMONSTRATION PROGRAM REPORT.

    (a) In General.--Not later than 1 year after the date of enactment 
of this Act, the Commissioner of Social Security shall submit to 
Congress a report describing the design of a demonstration program that 
would meet the specifications in subsection (b), including 
recommendations for any legislative changes necessary to implement such 
a program.
    (b) Goals.--
            (1) In general.--The Commissioner of Social Security shall 
        work with the States to determine whether, if appropriate 
        changes were made in the law, the existing funding streams for 
        specific populations, such as vocational rehabilitation 
        funding, Medicaid, Temporary Assistance for Needy Families, and 
        workers' compensation, could be modified to be delivered in a 
        more coordinated manner to improve outcomes and reduce 
        participation in supplemental security income or social 
        security disability insurance.
            (2) Incentive funding.--States who successfully implemented 
        such a program shall receive incentive funding to be determined 
        by the Commissioner and subject to appropriations.
    (c) Definition.--For the purposes of this section, the term 
``specific populations'' means populations identified by the 
Commissioner of Social Security as likely to receive a lifetime of 
supplemental security income or social security disability insurance.

SEC. 8. EMPLOYERS DEMONSTRATION PROGRAM REPORT.

    (a) In General.--Not later than 1 year after the date of enactment 
of this Act, the Commissioner of Social Security shall submit to 
Congress a report describing the design of a demonstration program that 
would meet the specifications in subsection (b), including 
recommendations for any legislative changes necessary to implement such 
a program.
    (b) Goals.--
            (1) In general.--In order to encourage employers to reduce 
        the incidence of disability among their employees by 20 
        percent, the Commissioner of Social Security shall create a 
        voluntary program for employers that would provide such 
        employers with a tax credit with respect to social security 
        disability insurance taxes if the employees of such employer do 
        not file for social security disability insurance.
            (2) Baseline.--For each employer who volunteers to 
        participate in the program, the Commission of Social Security 
        shall determine a baseline predicted rate of social security 
        disability insurance enrollment.
            (3) Employees tracked for program.--Employees employed on 
        the date the employer enrolled in the program shall be tracked 
        for a period of 3 years beginning on the date of enrollment in 
        the program, whether or not they remain employed by such 
        employer. If any such employee becomes eligible for social 
        security disability insurance during such period, the 
        employer's disability insurance participation rate shall be 
        affected.
            (4) Incentive.--At the end of the period, the employer's 
        disability insurance participation rate shall be compared to 
        the baseline, and if the participation rate has fallen by at 
        least 20 percent, the employer shall receive a social security 
        disability insurance tax credit of 75 percent of the disability 
        insurance cost savings during the period.

SOLUTION:
Disability Insurance Protection and Fraud Prevention Act of 2014 - Requires the Inspector General of the Social Security Administration to increase the number of cooperative disability investigative (CDI) units to 54 and distribute them equally among the most densely populated areas.  Prohibits the Commissioner of Social Security, in determining whether an individual is under a disability for insurance benefit payment purposes, from considering: (1) an individual as approaching advanced age unless he or she has attained age 58; (2) an individual as having attained advanced age unless he or she has attained age 61; and (3) the individual's inability to communicate in English as a vocational factor. Amends titles II (Old Age, Survivors and Disability Insurance) (OASDI) and XVI (Supplemental Security Income) (SSI) of the Social Security Act (SSA) to eliminate consideration of the combined effect of impairments in disability determinations. Makes appropriations for continuing disability reviews for FY2014-FY2018. Directs the Commissioner to assess for Congress after FY2018 the amount of savings attained as a result of such appropriations in the federal disability program under SSA title II and the SSI program. Requires the Commissioner to describe for Congress the designs of: (1) a disability demonstration program, (2) a state demonstration program to revise specified existing funding streams for specific populations to improve outcomes and reduce participation in SSI or Social Security disability insurance, and (3) a demonstration program that encourages employers to reduce the incidence of disability among their employees by 20% through a voluntary program that provides the employers with a tax credit if their employees do not file for Social Security disability insurance.
