Defining Physical Disabilities Can Be Challenging
To qualify for Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) or Supplemental Security Income (SSI) benefits, you must have a disability that prevents you from working and is expected to last for at least 12 months or result in death. According to the Social Security Administration (SSA), your physical disability must be severe, and you must be able to prove your impairment by medically acceptable clinical or laboratory diagnostic techniques.
Many of the following physical disabilities are found in disability cases:
- Joint problems
- Carpal tunnel
- Rheumatoid arthritis
- Fibromyalgia
- Lupus
- AIDS/HIV
- Cancer
- Seizures
- Diabetes
- Back conditions
- Chronic fatigue
- Narcolepsy
- Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS)
- Breathing impairments
- Heart conditions
- Hepatitis
- Headaches
- Vision impairments
- Chronic pain disorder
Thorough Preparation and Deep Knowledge Are Our Trademarks
As most people have more than one impairment that keeps them from working, it is very important to name and describe every single one of them in a disability case. This includes showing the interplay between any physical impairment with mental disabilities.
Our experienced SSD benefits attorneys will work closely with you, your doctors and any medical experts to ensure we are fully documenting each physical impairment you experience. We can then make sure that your claim includes everything that keeps you from working to give you the best chance at success.
