Form SSA-392 is used by the Social Security Administration's regional review component to facilitate the medical consultant's review of the Physical Residual Functional Capacity Form (PR). The SSA-392 records the reviewing medical consultant's assessment of the PR prepared by the adjudicating component. The medical consultant only completes an SSA-392 when the adjudicating component's PR is in the claims file. The SSA 392 is required for each PR completed. Respondents are medical consultants who review the adjudicating component's completion of the PR for quality purposes.
