(All)
A74.

Welcome to the National Beneficary Survey! Recently, you received a letter about the National Beneficary
Survey that Mathematica is conducting for the Social Security Administration. Before we start the survey, we
want to explain some facts about the survey.
The survey asks about your (NAME) health, daily activities, and any jobs you might have.
Taking part in the survey is completely voluntary. Completely voluntary means you can choose whether or not
to take part. If you decide to take part, you can skip any questions you do not like. You can also stop the
survey at any time. Whether you choose to take part or not, your disability benefits will not be affected in any
way.
All your answers will be kept confidential and used only for the research purposes of the study.
The survey will take about 20 minutes and you will receive a $30 gift card after you complete the survey.
This information collection meets the requirements of 44 U.S.C. § 3507, as amended by section 2 of the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. You do not need to answer these questions unless we display a valid Office
of Management and Budget (OMB) control number. The OMB control number for this collection is [0960NEW]; expiration date [MM/DD/YYYY].
Do you understand everything above and wish to continue to the survey?
