1/ Workers who are paid at some time during the year for employment on which
OASDI taxes are due.
2/ Beneficiaries with monthly benefits in current-payment status as of June 30.
3/ Preliminary.
Note: The numbers of beneficiaries do not include certain uninsured persons, 
most of whom both attained age 72 before 1968 and have fewer than 3 quarters of
coverage, in which cases the costs are reimbursed by the general fund of the 
Treasury. The number of such uninsured persons was 1,924 as of June 30, 1994, 
and is estimated to be fewer than 500 by the turn of the century. Totals do not
necessarily equal the sums of rounded components.
