Proposed Provision: Beginning with those newly eligible for OASDI benefits in 2015, use a modified primary insurance amount (PIA) formula. The modified formula: (1) increases the first bend point to the equivalent of $800 in 2009; (2) places a new bend point 75 percent of the way between the reset first bend point and the current-law second bend point; (3) lowers the PIA factor between the new bend point and the upper bend point from 32 percent to 20 percent; and (4) lowers the factor above the upper bend point from 15 percent to 10 percent.
