As you mention the form 1099-SSA will identify the lump sum payment amount according to the Social Security Administration records and you need to report the same amount on your tax return.
However, if you believe the amount is incorrect, you will need to contact the Social Security Administrations to verify and get a corrected form issued if needed.
Ultimately you need to report on your tax return the amounts as shown on your 1099-SSA either original or corrected.
