Medical Evaluation Guidelines for Social Security Disability

If you can satisfy work history requirements, and you have a medical impairment that meets or equals a government-listed impairment, you automatically qualify for money and benefits. End of story.

Unfortunately, doctors don't always understand the medical evaluation criteria, the evidence requirements, or what the SSA wants to see before it will issue a favorable ruling.

At Schwartzapfel Partners P.C., working with doctors is an important skill that our dedicated team of attorneys and support staff of professionals has developed, and one that has enabled us to help thousands of people involving all types of legal matters obtain the money and benefits they deserve and need.*
