Chronic Bronchitis Disability Claims
Chronic bronchitis is one form of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The Social Security Administration (SSA) enables individuals living with this disease to obtain disability benefits. However, the application process can be overwhelming due to the complexity of the record requirement for each claim.
Chronic Bronchitis Disability Claims and the Importance of Medical Records
To obtain Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) benefits, you must be able to show that you are impaired to the point where you do not have the residual functional capacity (RFC) to perform gainful employment. The SSA determines your level of impairment based upon the frequency and intensity of your chronic bronchitis episodes. The best way to show your impairment is to provide the SSA with a comprehensive medical record that includes:
- Evidence of you seeing your doctor on a regular basis
- Dates of hospitalization or other treatment
- Types of treatment provided and your response to that treatment
- How your chronic bronchitis affects your daily life, including your ability to work
