        This schedule reflects the effects of the Administration's proposal
    to increase the current $5.00 fee for the administration of state
    supplemental payments to $6.12 in FY 1998 and to $7.25 in FY 1999. The
    fee would be indexed to the CPI thereafter. The additional revenue would
    be used for SSA's administrative expenses, subject to appropriation.

        This is one of several proposals in the budget to charge fees to
    users directly availing themselves of, or subject to, a government
    service, program, or activity, in order to cover the government's costs.
    Legislation will be proposed to authorize the fees and, upon enactment
    of the authorization, a budget amendment to the current appropriations
    language will be proposed to make the fees available for expenditure.
    Because the current requirements of the Budget Enforcement Act of 1990
    make it difficult to fund discretionary programs with receipts that are
    not authorized in appropriations acts, the Administration is proposing a
    change in the requirements to facilitate the enactment of proposals such
    as this one.

        This schedule reflects the effects of the Administration's proposal
    to revise the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunities
    Reconciliation Act so that legal immigrants who become disabled after
    entering the United States can be eligible for Supplemental Security
    Income (SSI). The Administration also proposes to lengthen the period of
    eligibility for SSI for refugees and asylees from 5 to 7 years.

        This schedule also reflects the effects of the Administration's
    proposal to test allowing Supplemental Security Income and Social
    Security Disability Insurance beneficiaries to choose their own public
    or private vocational rehabilitation providers. Participating providers
    would be paid a percentage of disability benefits saved, as a result of
    beneficiaries returning to work, for a specified period of time.

        The Limitation on Administrative Expenses Account provides resources
    for the Social Security Administration (SSA) to administer the Old Age,
    Survivors, and Disability Insurance programs, the Supplemental Security
    Income program, and certain health insurance functions for the aged,
    disabled, and economically disadvantaged.

        The estimate of administrative expenses borne by each of the
    financing sources, including the Hospital Insurance (HI) and
    Supplemental Medical Insurance (SMI) trust funds for Medicare-related
    activities performed by the Social Security Administration (SSA), has
    been made by SSA based on the current cost allocation methodology.
    Pursuant to section 201(g) of the Social Security Act, a final
    accounting of actual payments is made after the close of each fiscal
    year. In the Conference Committee Report for Public Law 103-296, The
    Social Security Independence and Program Improvements Act of 1994, the
    conferees requested that the Secretary of Health and Human Services and
    the Commissioner of Social Security make a joint examination of the most
    appropriate cost allocation methodology and report their joint findings
    to the Congress within 36 months of enactment (August 15, 1997). The
    Secretary and the Commissioner are in the process of designing and
    carrying out this study and preparing the required report to the
    Congress.
