Applying for SSD Benefits and Short Bowel Syndrome (SBS)
Short bowel syndrome is caused either by malabsorption of nutrients or the removal of at least half of the small intestine. This syndrome can lead to weight loss, weakened bones, kidney stones or gallstones, and numerous other health issues. These issues can lead to an inability to work, go to school or enjoy other daily activities. If this sounds like your situation, you should consider pursuing Social Security Disability (SSD) benefits.
Learn About Applying for SSD Benefits and Short Bowel Syndrome (SBS)
To obtain Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) or Supplemental Security Income (SSI) benefits for SBS, you must provide extensive documentation supporting your claim to the Social Security Administration (SSA). This includes:
- Clinical and laboratory findings
- X-rays and other images
- Your doctor's opinion as to your disease
- Historical reports showing ongoing treatment
The more you are able to document your medical history and ongoing treatment, the better your chance at success. To ensure you are providing the proper documentation and a comprehensive summary of how SBS has affected your life, reach out to an experienced SSD benefits attorney today.
