SOCIAL SECURITY DISABILITY, SSI FOR ALLERGIES

Can you get ssd ssi disability for allergies?


Allergies are, essentially, significant reactions to various substances that, for most other individuals, produce no adverse reactions whatsoever.

Allergies are inflammatory reactions locally and systemically to allergens or pathogens in our environment, therefore an allergen could be a drug, insect, plant, chemical or a multitude of other things. Allergies may be triggered by chemical pollutants, foods, odors, pollen, and nearly any natural or synthetic substance that can be thought of.

Approximately 50 million Americans suffer from allergic diseases. In fact, allergies are so common that they are the sixth most common cause of chronic disease in the United States. It has been estimated that about sixty percent of all allergy sufferers develop asthma, and that medical treatment of allergic diseases cost the healthcare system in the United States about eighteen billion dollars per year.

Allergies are occasionally cited on disability applications. However, this is usually in concert with various other conditions, typically respiratory ailments such as asthma or bronchitis.

Can an individual receive disability benefits because they have allergies?

The simplest answer is this: a person can receive benefits for any condition...so long as the condition is disabling.

What is disabling according to the social security administration? Basically that a claimant's condition or conditions prevents them from working and earning above a certain threshold amount (the amount which is called SGA changes periodically) for at least 12 full months.

The SSA definition of disability is, of course, fairly strict, and for this reason a large percentage of applications and appeals are denied. But it is for this reason that a claimant should learn about the system, as much as possible.
