<h2>Objective</h2>
|
||
|
||
<p>
|
||
The Consolidated and Further Continuing Appropriations Act of 2015 (Pub. L. 113-235) appropriated funds to design, develop, and implement an early intervention demonstration to test innovative strategies aimed at helping people with disabilities remain in the workforce.<br/><br/>
|
||
In August 2016, SSA awarded a contract to Westat, Inc. to implement and evaluate whether offering evidence-based interventions of integrated vocational, medical, and behavioral health services to individuals with behavioral health challenges can significantly reduce the demand for disability benefits and help individuals remain in the labor force.<br/><br/>
|
||
The Supported Employment Demonstration (SED) used a random assignment design to assign 3,000 participants to one of two treatment groups (Full Services or Basic Services) or to a control group (Usual Services). For 36 months, participants received varying degrees of services based on their assignment. These services included systematic medication management, health care management and care-coordination services, and long-term employment services following the evidence-based Individual Placement and Support (IPS) model.
|
||
</p>
|
||
|
||
<h2>Status</h2>
|
||
|
||
<p>
|
||
All of the SED services and interventions were implemented and delivered between November 2017 and March 2022, when services to participants ended. Links to the final reports for the SED are available. A Public Use File for the SED is also available.

Eligibility:<br/>
|

Individuals aged 18 to 50 years who wanted to work; who applied for disability benefits (DI or SSI) alleging mental impairment in the past 30-60 days; and who received an initial denial decision from SSA.<br/><br/>

|
||
State(s) / Location(s) Involved:<br/>
|
||
Individuals from 30 urban and rural-urban mixed catchment areas at community mental health agency sites across the U.S. were recruited for the voluntary study. Staff at agencies participating in SED provided services and the interventions.<br/><br/>
|
||
|
||
SED Sites were located in these states:<br/> California, Colorado, Florida, Illinois, Kansas, Kentucky, Massachusetts, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Washington, and Wisconsin.

The Final Impact and Cost-Benefit Analysis Report revealed that Full-Service and Basic-Service treatment groups had significantly higher employment rates than control group participants. Treatment group members worked more and earned more during the study compared to usual services recipients. Cost-benefit findings showed the benefits did not outweigh costs during the intervention period for either the Full-Service or Basic-Service participants. However, analyses do suggest that the net benefit figure may not adequately capture the net benefits of the intervention, given findings that showed declining trends in service costs and increasing trends in earnings over time. A longer follow-up period would facilitate confirmation of this dynamic. Final analyses of application or entry into SSDI/SSI programs found no significant differences in SSDI/SSI allowance rates among the Full-Service, Basic-Service, or Usual Services groups; Allowance rates were roughly 15% in each of the three study groups during the study and appeals to denials were documented for nearly 50% of participants in each of the three study groups. A number of journal articles have been published about the demonstration thus far.

The <a href="documents/SED%20Final%20Process%20Analysis%20Report.pdf">Final Process Analysis Report</a> presents findings from the process evaluation based on data collected over four years of the Supported Employment Demonstration implementation. The objectives of the process evaluation were to assess whether sites implemented the demonstration as intended; identify challenges in providing services to the previously unstudied population served by this intervention; enhance evaluators’ ability to interpret the demonstration’s outcomes; and make recommendations for future services and demonstrations targeting individuals similar to those served by the SED. The report employs mixed methods, incorporating qualitative and quantitative data analyses techniques. <br/><br/>

The <a href="documents/SED-FinalEnrollmentAnalysisReport.pdf">Final Enrollment Analysis Report</a> and <a href="documents/SED-Appendixes-FinalEnrollmentAnalysisReport.pdf">Final Enrollment Analysis Report Appendixes</a> describe the population of eligible individuals who enrolled in the SED and compares this group to the greater study-eligible population of disability applicants alleging a mental impairment who received an initial denial of benefits. The enrollment analysis describes the types of individuals who enrolled, how they compare with non-enrollees, and the factors associated with enrollment.<br/><br/>

The <a href="documents/SED_Interim_Process_Analysis_Report_8-07-20.pdf">Interim Process Analysis Report</a> relies on three sources of data collected during SED implementation. Demonstration implementation began in December 2017 upon enrollment of our first SED participants. Enrollment of the full complement of 3,000 study participants ended in March 2019. Given the three-year participation period for each study participant, demonstration implementation will end in March 2022. The report focuses on the initial 24 months of implementation, from December 2017 through December 2019. The primary source of data derives from on-site interviews (referred to as the Process Evaluation Site Visits) with demonstration site staff and study participants in all three study arms. These interviews occur during each demonstration year, beginning in the early summer months and ending in early fall. The process evaluation also includes an assessment of two complementary aspects of implementation that affect internal validity. One is the assurance that treatment providers deliver services as planned, referred to as fidelity to a treatment model or service. Hence, the process evaluation includes independent assessments of fidelity conducted annually by experienced consultants. The second aspect of internal validity concerns the extent to which treatment group participants engage with the services available to them.
