One concern many people have when filing a SSD or SSI application is whether or not he or she will be approved for benefits. Most California residents are aware that not everyone has their application for disability benefits approved. Being rejected can be frustrating and demoralizing. The problems often begin when the worker gets the written statement from their physician. In many cases the doctor’s statement is brief and omits crucial details. This often happens because the doctor has a busy schedule and can only devote so much time to filling out paperwork for the SSA.

Another problem occurs when the medical tests do not support the doctor’s diagnosis. Although the doctor is the expert, and presumably knows which tests are appropriate, the SSA often has a different set of guidelines. They may require certain medical tests, and will deny benefit claim applications that do no provide these test results. A skilled SSDI attorney can take care of these problems before a claim is filed. They will make sure that the physician statement is completed with all details, all the medical tests have been performed, and the results are included with the claim documentation.
