    Area of Science:

    • Socioeconomics
    • Public Policy
    • Rehabilitation Science

    Background:

    • Rapid growth in disability expenditures observed in the 1970s.
    • Influencing factors and politicoeconomic variables impacting rehabilitation were identified.
    • Discussions with international stakeholders informed policy analysis.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To model relationships between policy variables and rehabilitation outcomes.
    • To present lessons for policymakers regarding current trends in rehabilitation.
    • To predict future disability and rehabilitation policy directions.

    Main Methods:

    • Development of a model examining policy and politicoeconomic variables.
    • Analysis of documentation on disability expenditures.
    • Qualitative insights from discussions with international experts and officials.

    Main Results:

    • Current trends may depress rehabilitant earnings and labor market stability.
    • Inflation increases both immediate and opportunity costs of rehabilitation.
    • Unequal cost-sharing may lead to inefficient resource allocation.

    Conclusions:

    • Rising costs and reduced benefits diminish the overall benefit-cost ratio of rehabilitation.
    • Policy adjustments are needed to improve efficiency and goal attainment.
    • Future US disability and rehabilitation policies are projected to evolve significantly.
