Common Qualifications For SSD
There are many disorders that are capable of resulting in life-altering consequences for the victim. In the event that you are suffering from a serious disorder that prevents you from working for a protracted period of time, you may qualify for Social Security Disability benefits. Our Plano Social Security Disability attorneys are available to assist you in filing a claim for these benefits, so that you are able to seek care for your disorder without experiencing undue financial hardship.
Common Impairments Listed In The “Blue Book”
Social Security Disability claims examiners and administrative law judges both serve to adjudicate claims that are filed by those seeking benefits. Claims examiners are typically those at the first level of the claims process, while administrative law judges hear appeals at higher levels. Both of these utilize the Social Security Administration manual, Listing of Impairments (commonly called the “blue book”) to determine which of those diseases and disorders qualify for the receipt of benefits. Common disorders listed in this “blue book” include:
- Asthma
- Cancer
- Cystic Fibrosis
- Lupus
- Hepatitis C
- Diabetes
- Heart and circulatory conditions
- Blood disorders
- Speech/vision disorders
- Multiple sclerosis
- Crohn’s disease
- Stroke
- Mental disorders
Even if you are not currently struggling with any of these qualifying disorders, as listed by the Social Security Administration, you may be facing other problems that are hindering your ability to function and work, such as obesity and other health issues.
