Presentation of Medical Records

The most important part of applying for socials security Disability or Supplemental Security Income benefits is presentation of medical records. A claim that does not have supporting medical documentation will simply be denied. Social Security attorneys insist on getting the name, address, and phone number of every medical care facility that provided any type of medical care for the applicant.

Social security lawyers insist that Medical records from places that provided very minor care are presented to the social security administration. But most importantly, social security lawyers present evidence of most recent medical treatments to the examiner. Simply put, a presentation that does not include records of all medical treatments is headed for denial.

When presenting medical records, the most important record is the statement by a doctor stating clearly the claimant is disabled. This statement must be very clear and state with specificity the restrictions the claimant experiences that impairs the ability to work. Though this is an important piece of evidence, this statement must be accompanied by other medical records such as history of medication, X-rays, MRIs, Blood test results to substantiate the statement by the doctor that the claimant is disabled. Our Attorneys guide the physicians in developing the proper statement that help the examiners in finding for the claimant and approving their benefits.
