What non-medical factors does the SSDI program consider for Residual Functional Capacity (RFC) in Wyoming? In Wyoming, the SSDI program looks beyond medical conditions by evaluating non-medical elements that affect your ability to work. These factors influence how the SSA determines your Residual Functional Capacity (RFC), which assesses what kind of work you can still do despite your impairments. The consideration of non-medical aspects helps the SSA form a comprehensive view of your work limitations and capabilities.
