CLAYTON, NORTH CAROLINA Complete the following form if seeking help from a disability lawyer or attorney in Clayton, North Carolina NC
If I am applying for social security disability in north carolina (in clayton or any other area) and I get a letter from social security about having to go to a doctor's exam, will I have to pay for it? No. Social security disability examiners (the people who review your medical records when you apply for disability) very often send claimants to such exams. However, the cost of this is borne completely by the social security administration. You will not have to pay anything and you will not receive a bill.
Can you win disability for only certain impairments, or on the basis of any impairment?
Answer: The Social Security Administration's disability evaluation system does not focus on a claimant's diagnosis, but, rather, on the functional limitations a claimant has. In other words, the name of the condition is not the chief consideration. How the condition "affects and limits: the indiviual is the primary concern. So, yes, disability benefits can be won on the basis of nearly any condition provided that the condition is sufficiently limiting.
As these hypothetical examples show, disabling conditions can take a wide variety of forms.
"Depression for several years. Have tried nearly every medication available, with no results. I have been in at least five different hospitals and am currently seeing a physciatrist."
"I have arthritis in both hips, bone spurs on my spine, I am to the point to where I can barely walk. I also have high blood pressure and am a diabetic."
"Peripheral neuropathy (etiology unknown, but non-diabetic). Symptoms are numbness in the feet and calves, loss of muscle tissue in calves and thighs, tenuous balance when walking, some tremulousness in hands when tired."
"I had a neck fusion in 1997 & a back fusion in 2006. Since then I still have problems with my neck because I have another disc that is narrowing. I also have back & leg pain caused from a compressed siatica nerve."
