Medical cessation (having your benefits stopped or cutoff) refers only to individuals who have been approved for disability benefits. Typically, after an individual has been approved for social security disability or SSI disability benefits, there are only two ways to have their benefits ceased. One involves work and earnings and the second involves medical cessation. Medical cessation generally occurs following the review of a disability claim (known as a CDR, or continuing disability review--typically, such reviews are scheduled to be performed every 1, 3, or 7 years). How does a recipient of SSI or SSD benefits get ceased? This happens when a benefit recipient's claim is reviewed and the determination is made that medical improvement has been made. What should you do if your disability benefits are stopped? Request an appeal immmediately (you have ten days from the date of the cessation notice; however, you should not wait a single day to request your appeal).
