What Does it Mean to be “Disabled”?
The Social Security Administration (SSA) considers you disabled under its rules if:
- You can’t do the work that you did before;
- You can’t adjust to other work because of your medical condition(s); and
- Your disability has lasted or is expected to last for at least 12 months or is expected to result in death.
Is it Difficult to Win a Claim for Social Security Disability Benefits in Paducah?
It’s easy to file your claim, but it’s hard to get it approved! You may believe that what you put in your claim application decides whether or not you’ll be approved. Your claim application is merely the starting point of the process. Don’t wait, file your application as soon as possible.
Most people who apply for benefits are initially denied.
Many people think that if they simply explain their medical situation to someone at the SSA, that person will understand and award them benefits. Unfortunately, that’s not the way Social Security Disability works. The Social Security Disability system involves thousands of rules, regulations, and procedures – even unwritten ones!
When you file your claim, it can be denied for any number of reasons, often through no fault of your own. For example, your claim may be denied if your doctor doesn’t know what’s important to your particular claim. Or, if a Social Security employee doesn’t get the right medical evidence on your behalf. Or, if your appeal of a denial is handled improperly. That’s why it’s so important to contact Morgan, Collins and Yeast. Our firm has helped thousands of Kentuckians get their claims approved.
