Getting Through The Social Security Disability Claim Obstacle Course: It’s A Marathon, Not A Sprint!

  By

By Evan Zagoria

Don’t throw your hands up and give up hope! If you, your spouse or your child are disabled, frustrated, and are trying to collect Social Security disability benefits, you are not alone. The process seems difficult, long and discouraging at every turn.

Don’t despair! You can succeed in recovering these benefits that you deserve if you have professional help and understand that the process is designed to wear you down, frustrate and discourage you. It is a marathon, not a sprint!

This guide can help you understand and get through the process of filing and collecting social security disability benefits. One thing that can’t be overlooked is the importance of getting professional help from an attorney that specializes in social security disability claims. Not every attorney understands the process or has the experience to maximize your chances of recovery.

Buckle up! Here we go!

Overview:

The Social Security disability program really is two systems, known as (1) Social Security Disability Benefits (Title II) and (2) Supplemental Security Income/SSI (Title XVI). Social Security disability benefits can be paid to the worker, and auxiliary benefits to a spouse and minor children. . Disability benefits can be paid to the widow(er), age 50 and over, of a deceased worker. Disability benefits can also be paid to the child, age 18 and over, of a disabled, deceased, or retired worker, if disability starts prior to age 22. Social Security survivor benefits can be paid to the spouse and minor children of disabled, deceased, or retired workers. Social Security retirement benefits can be paid to workers of appropriate age and their spouses. Social Security disability benefits generally require a worker, age 31 and over, to have worked 5 of the 10 years before they become disabled or have 20 calendar quarters of earnings in the 40 calendar quarter period ending with the quarter in which disability begins. Workers disabled prior to age 31 have special rules but must in general work half of the time between age 21 and when disability commenced.

Supplemental Security Income (SSI) benefits are a form of welfare benefits payable to disabled, blind, or aged (65 and over) individuals. To be eligible for these benefits the disabled person need never have worked. In place of the work requirements, SSI has strict income and resource rules. Countable assets cannot exceed $2,000.00 for an individual. Income cannot exceed $623.00/month, generally (in 2007). Income can be deemed from parent to minor children and from spouse to spouse.

The definition of disability is the same for both Social Security and adult SSI disability benefits. The statutory definition is as follows:

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=61YKOsuATjY[/youtube]

‘The inability to perform any substantial gainful activity by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment which can be expected to result in death or which has lasted or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than 12 months.’

Merely being unable to perform your usual occupation or return to your former employer is not sufficient grounds for being found disabled. Employer hiring practices, unavailability of jobs, and a poor local economy, for example, are also not grounds for being found disabled.

To be considered disabled, generally, the claimant must be unable to perform the exertional demands (sitting, standing, walking, bending, lifting, carrying) and non-exertional demands (mental, visual, hearing, pain, fatigue, etc.) of simple and unskilled sedentary or sitting down jobs. There are occupations that require very little lifting, allow for postural changes, require minimal use of the hands, or require little education or job training. Claimants under age 50 must be unable to perform even unskilled sedentary occupations. For claimants age 50 and over, there are different combinations of age, education, prior work, skills, and the level of work one can do that help determine if disability exists. The definition of disability becomes somewhat easier at ages 50, 55, and 60.

The Disability Process:

Even though the Social Security program is national or federal in scope, there are significant local and state variations to the process, such as case processing times and allowance rates. A disability decision is often a subjective conclusion, as many medical judgments are gray, rather than black and white. Some adjudicators and Administrative Law Judges (ALJ’s) might be more liberal or more conservative.

The general claim process is to file an application after which a state agency makes the initial decision. If your claim is denied, you can request reconsideration. After a reconsideration decision, if benefits are still not granted, you can request a hearing from an Administrative Law Judge. If your claim is still denied, you can request an Appeals Council review, and if denied by the Appeals Council, the next step is Federal Court review. If you are denied at one level, you have 60 days from receipt of the denial, absent ‘good cause’ to appeal or file for the next level. You are presumed to have received a decision 5 days after the date on the decision unless you can prove receipt at a later date. Examples of ‘good cause’ include, but are not limited to, death or serious illness in the family, being hospitalized, or not receiving the denial notice.

In 10 states, including Michigan, SSA began testing a program called Prototype. This omitted the reconsideration level and allows claimants to go directly from the initial denial to the ALJ hearing level. The rationale for the experiment was that the allowance rate at the reconsideration level tends to be comparatively low. The Prototype program was not extended to the other states but it continues in existence in the original 10 states.

The SSA disability process needs to be considered as more of a marathon than a sprint. One must be prepared for the process to take time, and for rejection. The SSA process can be aggravating, frustrating, time-consuming, and duplicative. Not all claimants have the resources, willpower, or stamina to deal with SSA’s lengthy process. A significant percentage of claimants denied at one level do not appeal to the next level. Some of these claimants might have gotten better or decided they were not actually disabled. Many, however, abandon the process despite believing they are disabled, because they believe they will not win or do not have the ability to continue to fight the system. You need an experienced attorney to help you maneuver through the obstacle course and keep pressing your claim through the levels of reviews and appeals until you succeed. Representation by an experienced attorney who is willing to press your claim through all steps and levels of the process relieves much of the burden of the claimant in completing the process. The further one goes in the process, the more likely one is to win, particularly at the ALJ level. The ALJ level is the single most favorable level of the process. The ALJ’s are more independent and have greater discretion to believe a claimant’s subjective complaints of pain, fatigue, or emotional distress.

Not every lawyer understands the SSA process from both sides of the table. Not every lawyer understands the Social Security Act and Regulations as well as others. Not every lawyer understands medicine as well as others. Not every lawyer understands how to obtain medical evidence and opinions, in the form of sworn statements of treating physicians, reports, records, or treating physician statements about residual functional capacity and how to use that to prove disability. You need an attorney with a lot of experience in handling these cases to maximize your chances of success.

It is best to apply as soon as possible. Even though the Act has a 12 month durational criteria, one need not actually be out of work or disabled for 12 months before an application is filed. Social Security disability benefits cannot be paid more than one year prior to the application date.

It is very important to have attorney representation as soon as possible in the process. The more subjective the disability, i.e., pain or fatigue or emotional problems, the more likely it will be denied at the initial or reconsideration levels. Adjudicators at these lower levels have less discretion to believe more subjective complaints. There are better and worse ways to complete an application. Seemingly innocent questionnaires as to daily activities, pain, headaches are frequently relied on to DENY claims. These should be reviewed by your attorney. The attorney and his or her staff should help you complete these forms.

Despite statements by SSA, claimants who are trying to be found ‘disabled’ do not need to attend consultative examinations scheduled by SSA. The examinations requested by SSA may not be complete and the doctor’s evaluations may be less than impartial. Under SSA’s Regulations, the treating physician is supposed to be the primary source of providing medical evidence.

Spending this extra time preparing applications, filling out activity forms, managing the consultative exam process does not always guarantee a favorable decision at the initial or reconsideration levels, but allows the attorney to help his or her clients win more claims at the ALJ level.

Claimants must continue to see doctors regularly and preferably the same doctor(s). The burden of proof of disability is on the claimant. You are presumed to be ‘not disabled’ until you prove to the Social Security Administration’s satisfaction you are. You meet this burden of proof with your medical records, reports, sworn statements, residual functional capacity assessments, etc. The more medical evidence you have the easier it is to meet your burden. Older medical evidence does not necessarily prove current impairment and, more importantly, resulting functional loss. Being awarded VA benefits, Workers Compensation benefits, disability benefits from an employer or insurance company is not necessarily proof of disability to SSA by Regulation. Every disability program has its own unique medical and legal criteria. A doctor you see regularly, a doctor seen over a longer period of time, is considered a long time treating physician, and is entitled to more adjudicative weight than a doctor seen only once or twice. Under appropriate circumstances, the long time treating physician can be entitled to ‘controlling weight’.

It is often very difficult for a claimant to represent themselves. Most do not understand SSA’s complex medical criteria and legal requirements. Most claimants do not understand what their medical records say or whether they help or hurt regarding the SSA claim. You cannot always rely on SSA to request and obtain complete medical records, or residual functional capacity assessments from doctors, hospitals, and clinics.

You need an attorney who will professionally represent a claimant at all levels of the process, before or after the ALJ hearing. Many lawyers will not get involved at the early stages of the claim.

Fees:

Social Security and SSI disability claims are usually handled on a contingent fee basis which means you will not owe any fee unless your claim is approved. Under SSA’s system, when represented by an attorney (or an SSA approved non-attorney representative), SSA will withhold 25% of all retroactive benefits payable to the claimant and his/her family members for direct payment of the authorized fee. SSA must authorize or approve any fee that any representative can charge. You do not pay any extra or higher fee to hire an experienced lawyer compared to less experienced lawyers. In some cases, retaining an experienced lawyer results in a lower fee if benefits can be awarded at an earlier stage of the process or prior to the hearing date. Why not hire an attorney with many years of experience, handling thousands of claims?

For most claimants, winning or losing their Social Security claim means the difference between being able to retain some normalcy of life or not.

Causes

Genetics, environment, substance use is mostly considered a risk factor but precise causes are not clear. If a family has schizophrenic patients then in this family newborns are at risk of developing this disease. Malnutrition or infection during pregnancy can also become a cause. Stress can also play a role in developing this disease. Cannabis use can become a contributing factor in developing schizophrenia.

Treatment

Antipsychotics medicines are used to treat these patients. These medicines have disturbing side effects. Like blood pressure and diabetes patients schizophrenic patients are required to take these medicines for remaining life but the American Psychiatric Association(APA),advises doctors to stop recommending antipsychotics to those patients who have no symptoms for the last one or two years. Most schizophrenic patients start living a normal life with good treatment. Some of them also recover completely. These patients also required good social support to recover.

Here we look at the elements of Alchemy. Alchemy being A power or process of transforming something common into something special. Mirriam Webster s dictionary.

I ve never wanted to be a witch, but an alchemist, now that s a different matter. ~ JK Rowling

Many people when looking at alchemy only look at the transmutation of lead into gold. Assuredly wealth creation is an element of alchemy but only one element of alchemy.

True alchemy is the evolution or transmutation from where we are to where we wish to be, or our highest vision that we have for ourselves. In all areas of life. Having being a multi millionaire, and bankrupt I really appreciate physical wealth, but it is only one aspect of life and without wealth in the other areas we would be really poor.

Thinking and wishing will not turn base metal into gold. But here with the elements of alchemy you will understand how to turn the common into something special.

1. Decide your life s purpose what is it that your uniquely equipped to be, to do and to have? If you re not sure about your life s purpose head over to my blog whereTODAY you can get a mini course for Free which will help you ascertain what you life s purpose is.

2. Define your Physical Health objective(s) how long do you wish to live for and what quality of health do you desire.

3. Determine what you would like your Family and home situation to look like. Kids? How do you wish to communicate with your significant other? Over time the quality of your communication determines the quality of your relationship, if you wish to communicate better look at my blog How to Communicate

4. Explore what your spiritual outcome you would like. This is an apposite time to recall that we re human beings, not human doings, we need time to be.

5. Discover what financial and career objectives are

6. Conceive your social relationships

7. What are you goals regarding mental improvement, learn a language, learn to touch type, take a degree/phd. Our brains can get better with age, if we use them!

Now that you have accomplished the first element of alchemy deciding what it is that you desire, the second element of alchemy is to establish where you are in each of the key areas of your life. Health, wealth, relationships both family and social your spirituality and your mental condition, these are the elements of alchemy like Water, earth, air and fire are of the physical world.

With the second element of alchemy you take an honest and open inventory of where you are. If you re deep in debt and just 30 days from financial disaster as most people in the west are.

If you ve gone through a rough time This will help Turn your Worst into Your best Day. If you re struggling to find the time to do what you want and are lurching from one must do to the next have a read of my blog the Importance of Time management

The fourth element of Alchemy is take action, small amounts of action will at best produce small results and often will produce no results at all. You might just feel that you re doing something. To produce noticeable results massive focused action is the way to go.

The fifth element is to review the results that have been achieved form the massive focused action that we undertook. Test and measure, do more of what works that takes you towards your goal and is fun. And do less or stop those things that are producing results that are divergent from what you desire.

Sixth element of alchemy let go, have fun, relaxing in the knowledge that you are in the process of creating something magical. Turning the common into something really valuable a life lived on purpose full of vibrant good health abundant wealth and deep and fulfilling relationships.

If working a regular 9 to 5 job just isn’t for you, starting a small business is a great alternative. While a lot of hard work goes into making a business successful, you will be able to have more freedom when working for yourself.

Having a functional computer network is about much more than checking Facebook or sending an email. Many businesses use the internet to stay in contact with customers regardless of what time of day it is. If your computer network crashes, these lines of communication will be closed.

This can lead to customers getting angry and may even lead to you losing business.

Regardless of what issues your network has, IT professionals will be able to diagnose and fix it quickly.

Optimizing The Network’s Functionality

They will be able to implement the latest technology solutions when increasing the functionality of your network. The investment in this kind of support will pay off when workers are able to increase their productivity levels.

A Wine Lover\’s Weekly Guide To $10 Wines – A Valpolicella From Italy

by

Levi Reiss

Don\’t let the title fool you, every single Valpolicella wine comes from the northeastern Italian region of Veneto, which has been making wines for over three thousand years. While France has made a major effort to defend Champagne as a French-only wine, to the best of my knowledge Italy has made no such effort for Valpolicella. The Bolla winery dates back to 1883. They have the Slavonian oak barrels to prove it. Valopicella is made from a combination of at least three grapes; Corvina, Rondinella, and Molinara. Other grapes are sometimes used in small quantities. The winery itself is located in San Pietro in Cariano, located about 12 kilometers (8 miles) northwest of Verona, home to Italy\’s third largest Roman amphitheatre. Its interior is still used for a many fairs and operas. Our companion wine is an Amarone, which is an upscale wine from these same grapes. In fact, Bolla was the first to commercialize this wine. But we review another version. Amarone costs about four times as much, ounce per ounce.

OUR WINE REVIEW POLICY All wines that we taste and review are purchased at the full retail price.

Let\’s start by quoting the marketing materials. \”Tasting Note : Ruby colour; cherry and spice hints on the nose; pleasantly crisp, fruity with black pepper on the finish. Serving Suggestion : Serve with sausage or pork chops.\” And now for my review.

At the first sips our wine tasted of dark cherries. It had no tannins and was rather raw. The main dish was a beef chili made with spicy salsa. In response Val lengthened and broadened but was still harsh. The accompanying eggplant cooked alongside tomatoes, onions, and mushrooms made me want to put this wine back to ripen. The side dish of brown rice was tasty but made no change to the contents of my glass. Fruit juice candy definitely muted this libation, but it was long.

The second meal included barbecued chicken breast and leg. When paired with the white meat this libation tasted of raw cherries and exuded raw acidity but no tannins. The chicken leg weakened the cherry taste as the drink\’s acidity strengthened. The side dish of green beans in tomato sauce with onions rendered our Italian friend\’s acidity sharp, or should I say harsh? Dessert consisted of fresh strawberries. The good news was the absence of that unpleasant acidity in the wine. Perhaps in solidarity, the wine itself was virtually absent.

The final meal focused on sliced slow cooked round steak. In response our wine was a bit thin and its acidity a bit raw. There were no tannins. The accompanying white potatoes sweetened the liquid somewhat. I got a tinge of tobacco. The accompanying sweet potatoes rounded that bothersome acidity, but not enough. Adding a generous amount of Yemini jalapeno pepper sauce to the meat made the potion a bit peppery.

Final verdict. I definitely won\’t buy this wine again. Even if I could get it for the Internet price of $9 instead of the almost $13 that I paid.
