ROCKY MOUNT, NORTH CAROLINA Complete the following form if seeking help from a disability lawyer or attorney in Rocky Mount, North Carolina NC
Once a hearing request is made in north carolina, how long does the judge have to set the hearing date? Simplest answer: as long as is required. Unlike five years ago when it sometimes only took 3-5 months to get a disability hearing in north carolina, it can now take over two years. This is without a doubt unfortunate since it only means that disability claimants are forced to find some way of surviving financially during that length of time. If you are represented by a disability attorney, you can potentially have your hearing request expedited but this will depend to some extent on your ability to provide documentation regarding your dire need.
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.
"Chronic low back pain with an implanted intrathecal Morphine pump to help alleviate pain. Depression, hypothyroidism, restricted range of motion in right knee and neck"
"I have been diagnosed with Fibromyalgia, but my doctors suspect that there is another more elusive condition that is the actual primary "disease". I have a positive ANA titer, elevated CRP proteins and CPK enzymes indicating that there is some type of significant inflammation and/or damage to the muscles."
"Degenerative disc desease,Ostio aurithritus. Have 4 disc bulging 3 have multipil tares. On narcotics to help with pain."
