How to Claim Social Security Disability for Digestive System Disorders

Digestive system disorders can be debilitating because they cause severe abdominal pain, fatigue, stress, depression and bowel problems. The Social Security Administration (SSA) recognizes digestive diseases in its listing of impairments. To obtain Social Security Disability (SSD) benefits, however, you must provide appropriate medical evidence of the disease's effect on your ability to work.

The main disorders and conditions named in the impairment listing include:

Gastrointestinal hemorrhaging
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), including Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis
Short bowel syndrome (SBS)
Weight loss due to any digestive disorder
Liver transplant
Chronic liver disease, including chronic hepatitis, alcoholic liver disease and Wilson's disease

When submitting medical evidence to the SSA for digestive diseases, you must provide clinical findings and lab results, including pathology. Medical imaging results are also important, such as endoscopy, sonography, X-rays, CAT scans, MRIs or radionuclide scans as well as any operations. Your doctor should document the diagnosis and the effects of any treatment you have received.
