Electronic Records Express

When a new source registers to use the website, SSA or state agency employees conduct the registration by phone or in person, and then keys the information into ERE. After completing the registration process, the registered user can provide evidence to the agency, and may request payment for providing evidence through the ERE website. SSA and state agency employees request the medical and educational records collected through the ERE website. The agency uses the information collected through ERE to make a determination on an Application for Benefits. We also use the ERE website to order and receive consultative examinations when we are unable to collect enough medical records to determine disability findings. The respondents are medical providers who evaluate or treat disability claimants or recipients, and other third parties with connections to disability applicants or recipients (ex: teachers and school administrators for child disability applicants), who voluntarily choose to use ERE to submit information.

The latest form for Electronic Records Express expires 2026-11-30 and is listed under ICR 202008-0960-017.
