Full text
The method of reconsideration we will use when you appeal an initial determination on your application for benefits depends on the issue involved in your case.
(a) Nonmedical issues. If you challenge our finding on a nonmedical issue, we shall offer you a case review or an informal conference, and will reach our reconsidered determination on the basis of the review you select.
(b) Medical issues. If you challenge our finding on a medical issue (even if you received payments because we presumed you were blind or disabled), we shall reach our reconsidered determination on the basis of a case review.
