(a) From the sums appropriated therefor, the
Secretary of the Treasury shall pay to each
State which has an approved plan for aid to the
permanently and totally disabled, for each quar-
ter, beginning with the quarter commencing Oc-
tober 1, 1958—
(1) Repealed. Pub. L. 97–35, title XXI,
§ 2184(c)(2)(A), Aug. 13, 1981, 95 Stat. 817.
(2) in the case of Puerto Rico, the Virgin Is-
lands, and Guam, an amount equal to one-half
of the total of the sums expended during such
quarter as aid to the permanently and totally
disabled under the State plan, not counting so
much of any expenditure with respect to any
month as exceeds $37.50 multiplied by the

and
(3) in the case of any State, an amount equal
to 50 percent of the total amounts expended
during such quarter as found necessary by the
Secretary for the proper and efficient adminis-
tration of the State plan.
(b) The method of computing and paying such
amounts shall be as follows:
(1) The Secretary of Health and Human
Services shall, prior to the beginning of each
quarter, estimate the amount to be paid to the
State for such quarter under the provisions of
subsection (a), such estimate to be based on
(A) a report filed by the State containing its
estimate of the total sum to be expended in
such quarter in accordance with the provisions
of subsection (a), and stating the amount ap-
propriated or made available by the State and
its political subdivisions for such expenditures
in such quarter, and if such amount is less
than the State’s proportionate share of the
total sum of such estimated expenditures, the
source or sources from which the difference is
expected to be derived, (B) records showing the
number of permanently and totally disabled
individuals in the State, and (C) such other in-
vestigation as the Secretary of Health and
Human Services may find necessary.
(2) The Secretary of Health and Human
Services shall then certify to the Secretary of
the Treasury the amount so estimated by the
Secretary of Health and Human Services, (A)
reduced or increased, as the case may be, by
any sum by which he finds that his estimate
for any prior quarter was greater or less than
the amount which should have been paid to
the State under subsection (a) for such quar-
ter, and (B) reduced by a sum equivalent to
the pro rata share to which the United States
is equitably entitled, as determined by the
Secretary of Health and Human Services, of
the net amount recovered during a prior quar-
ter by the State or any political subdivision
thereof with respect to aid to the permanently
and totally disabled furnished under the State
plan; except that such increases or reductions
shall not be made to the extent that such
sums have been applied to make the amount
certified for any prior quarter greater or less
than the amount estimated by the Secretary
of Health and Human Services for such prior
quarter: Provided, That any part of the amount
recovered from the estate of a deceased recipi-
ent which is not in excess of the amount ex-
pended by the State or any political subdivi-
sion thereof for the funeral expenses of the de-
ceased shall not be considered as a basis for re-
duction under clause (B) of this paragraph.
(3) The Secretary of the Treasury shall
thereupon, through the Fiscal Service of the
Treasury Department, and prior to audit or
settlement by the Government Accountability
Office, pay to the State, at the time or times
fixed by the Secretary of Health and Human
Services, the amount so certified.

been approved by the Secretary of Health and
Human Services, if the Secretary after reason-
able notice and opportunity for hearing to the
State agency administering or supervising the
administration of such plan, finds—
(1) that the plan has been so changed as to
impose any residence or citizenship require-
ment prohibited by section 1352(b) of this title,
or that in the administration of the plan any
such prohibited requirement is imposed, with
the knowledge of such State agency, in a sub-
stantial number of cases; or
(2) that in the administration of the plan
there is a failure to comply substantially with
any provision required by section 1352(a) of
this title to be included in the plan;
the Secretary shall notify such State agency
that further payments will not be made to the
State (or, in his discretion, that payments will
be limited to categories under or parts of the
State plan not affected by such failure) until he
is satisfied that such prohibited requirement is
no longer so imposed, and that there is no longer
any such failure to comply. Until he is so satis-
fied he shall make no further payments to such
State (or shall limit payments to categories
under or parts of the State plan not affected by
such failure).

§ 1355. Definitions
For the purposes of this subchapter, the term
‘‘aid to the permanently and totally disabled’’
means money payments to needy individuals
eighteen years of age or older who are perma-
nently and totally disabled, but does not include
any such payments to or care in behalf of any
individual who is an inmate of a public institu-
tion (except as a patient in a medical institu-
tion) or any individual who is a patient in an in-
stitution for tuberculosis or mental diseases.
Such term also includes payments which are not
included within the meaning of such term under
the preceding sentence, but which would be so
included except that they are made on behalf of
such a needy individual to another individual
who (as determined in accordance with stand-
ards prescribed by the Secretary) is interested
in or concerned with the welfare of such needy
individual, but only with respect to a State
whose State plan approved under section 1352 of
this title includes provision for—
(1) determination by the State agency that
such needy individual has, by reason of his
physical or mental condition, such inability to
manage funds that making payments to him
would be contrary to his welfare and, there-
fore, it is necessary to provide such aid
through payments described in this sentence;
(2) making such payments only in cases in
which such payments will, under the rules oth-
erwise applicable under the State plan for de-
termining need and the amount of aid to the
permanently and totally disabled to be paid
(and in conjunction with other income and re-
sources), meet all the need 1 of the individuals
with respect to whom such payments are
made;
(3) undertaking and continuing special ef-
forts to protect the welfare of such individual
and to improve, to the extent possible, his ca-
pacity for self-care and to manage funds;
(4) periodic review by such State agency of
the determination under paragraph (1) to as-
certain whether conditions justifying such de-
termination still exist, with provision for ter-
mination of such payments if they do not and
for seeking judicial appointment of a guardian
or other legal representative, as described in
