Social Security Disability
By Joseph Pressner, Ph.D.
This is the first in a two-part series on social security disability.
As the disease progresses, individuals suffering from Parkinson’s Disease often come to the point where they must file
for social security disability benefits. However, most of us have no experience in filing such a claim. Furthermore, the
process seems very confusing and complex. Many times individuals do not know the “ins and outs” of applying.
This first article is meant to be a “primer” about filing for disability benefits. However, a disclaimer is in order.
1) Although I am very familiar with the disability process, I am not nor have I ever been an employee of the social
security administration or the state of Indiana’s disability determination bureau. I have been a consultant for many
years. Thus I am an “outsider,” and am not writing on behalf of the state of Indiana or the social security administration.
This article represents my personal opinion only. 2) Each social security disability claim is decided on a “case-by-
case” basis. This article contains general information that may or may not be applicable to the particular claim. It is
therefore wise to obtain professional help for your disability claim.
SSD vs. SSI.
There are two separate but related social security disability programs. The first, social security disability (SSD), is for
those individuals who are 1) medically disabled and 2) who are covered by social security. If an individual has a
significant work history, it is probable that the individual is covered under this program although the eligibility rules can
be complex. The second, supplemental security income (SSI), is a program for those individuals who are 1) medically
disabled and 2) who have very limited income and resources. Many times because an individual has been ill and unable
to work for a significant period of time, an individual may be eligible for both programs. By and large the medical
determination is the same for both programs. The difference between the two is not medical. The difference in the pro-
grams is basically work history and financial status.
Filing a claim.
There are several ways of filing. An individual can apply via the telephone or can set up a face-to-face meeting at the
social security office by calling 1-800-772-1213. The fastest way to apply is on line if you have a computer and internet
connection. The web address is ssa.gov. This leads to the social security home page. There is a tab there indicating
“Disability.” Merely click on this tab and you are on your way. I recommend whether applying via telephone, appoint-
ment, or on-line, that you read through all the pages. There is a wealth of information about the disability determination
process.
After familiarizing yourself, you can begin the application process by selecting option two on the disability page,
“Complete the Disability Application Report.” This is quite a lengthy form, and you need a lot of information at your
finger tips to complete this such as the names, addresses, and phone numbers of all your doctors. However, it is
possible to partially complete the form and go back to it at a later time. You can take your time with this to make sure
that the form is completed with as much information as possible,
Finally, if you have access to a computer, the internet and a printer, it’s possible to download the form, to fill it out by
hand, and then to mail it in.
One question that people sometimes ask is which way of applying is the best. You may wish to consult with your own
expert about this before you apply, but from my experience there are a couple of differences that could come into play.
First, when you apply on-line, all of the answers are neatly typed. The form is easy for reviewers to use. This helps to
make sure that the people making the decision can read all of the information that you want them to read. Hand-written
forms may not be as easy for reviewers to read, and they may not understand what you are trying to communicate.
Second, there is one difference between a face-to-face, and an on-line application. This difference could facilitate some
claims, but could also be detrimental to others. There is a place on the form for the social security employee to record
his/her observations. Thus if the person filing for disability is severely disabled, it may facilitate the claim for that social
PRODUCED AND DISTRIBUTED BY: PAACI Page 5
security employee to describe the limitations that he/she sees. On the other hand if the individual filing for benefits is
very functional, having this observed and written down by the social security employee could be detrimental to the
claim. It probably goes without saying that when a claim is filed electronically, there is no social security employee to
make any observations. In general because of the ease of filing electronically, more and more people are filing that way
rather than waiting weeks for a face-to-face appointment and having to make the trip to the local office.
The Determination Process.
After the claim is filed, within days it goes to an adjudicator. This is the person who is charged with gathering the infor-
mation, assessing it, and making the final decision. The adjudicator is typically not a health care professional, but is
assisted in making the decision by a group of physicians representing the main medical specialties, by psychologists and
psychiatrists who assess the mental health aspects of claims, and by speech/language pathologists if there are
communication issues.
Once you have filed you will have your own specific adjudicator. This is your contact person regarding all aspects of
you initial claim. This person should assist you in making sure that all of the necessary medical records are obtained.
Also the adjudicator may well send you several questionnaires to fill out about your condition and how the condition
affects you on a day-to-day basis.
At times there is not enough medical information to make a disability decision. Perhaps your physician has not sent in
the records or perhaps the records do not contain enough information, or perhaps they are not recent enough. In such
cases the adjudicator may ask that you attend an exam or even several examinations by physicians and psychologists in
your area. You do not have to pay for these examinations. The cost of the exam is born by the social security
administration.
Some people ask if it is necessary to go to these examinations. In general the answer to this question is “yes – you have
to go.” The reason for this is that the examinations are being ordered because there is insufficient medical evidence. If
there is insufficient medical evidence, then a finding of disability cannot be made. On the other hand, attorneys at times
counsel their clients to NOT attend such examinations. The may believe that there is, in fact, sufficient medical
evidence, and they may want the claim decided on that evidence and that evidence alone. Thus, in doubt, this is another
reason to have an attorney.
Once the adjudicator has obtained all of the necessary information he/she will make a decision which you will receive in
writing. This usually takes less than 60 days from the time that you file your claim. Most of this time is simply waiting
on the medical sources to provide information or waiting on the applicant or applicant’s family/friends, to provide
requested information. In general the decision is made within a day or two after all the information is in file.
What If My Claim is Denied?
There is a myth that all claims are denied initially. There is some variability from state to state, but approximately a
third of all claims are allowed at the initial level.
If your claim, however, is one of the two-thirds denied, your next step is to file an appeal. When you appeal, your claim
goes back to the disability decision bureau, but it is evaluated by a different adjudicator, and different physicians, and
psychologists. They are charged with the responsibility of making an independent decision – not simply rubber
stamping the initial decision. You will be asked for any updated medical information or information on your day-to-day
functioning. Since most of the information has already been collected, this second step in the process is quite rapid –
usually less than 30 days.
There is another myth that if your claim has been denied at the initial level it will automatically be denied at the appeal
level. Although this statistic again varies from state-to-state, approximately one-quarter of those claims appealed are
allowed at the second level.
If, however, your claim is denied at the reconsideration level, your next level of appeal is to request a hearing before an
administrative law judge (ALJ). Again, there is quite a bit of variability in regard to allowance versus denial rates, but
on the average, at least another 25% of claims are allowed at this level.
The ALJ is totally independent and in some ways above the rules and regulations. At the hearing you will have a
Page 6 INDY PD UPDATE
chance to present your claim and your facts face-to-face with
the person who is making the decision. This represents your
last best chance for a favorable decision.
If denied at the ALJ level, an appeal can be made to the
Appeals Council, and beyond that to federal district courts,
but these appeals are rarely successful.
To Lawyer-up or not to Lawyer-up.
If you are a fan of day time television, you are probably aware
that there are many attorneys specializing in disability claims.
Some would have you believe that just involving an attorney
in your claim somehow intimidates the decision makers and
increases the probability of a favorable decision. This is
simply not true. The adjudicators, physicians, and
psychologists at the disability decision bureau provide the
same service to individuals filing for themselves as those who
have obtained an attorney.
Per regulations, these attorneys are not to charge you unless
your claim is allowed. At that point their payment is confined
to a specific percentage of the award of back benefits.
Usually this comes out of the first payment to you.
When it comes to appealing a denial decision – especially
when going to an ALJ hearing – I have always advised my
friends and relatives to seek a competent attorney. They have
much experience in dealing with different ALJs and thus will
know the best way to present your case to the specific ALJ.
That being said, in my personal opinion, there is significant
variability in the quality of the attorneys who specialize in
disability claims. Some seem to take on every case, but
provide little service. Their strategy seems to be that if they
take a 100 cases, do little, but win 10% of them, they will
receive a significant amount of money for virtually no real
work. Then there are others who take on a much smaller
number of cases, but work hard on behalf of their clients.
Their strategy seems to be that they will take a smaller
number of cases, work hard, and win a greater number of
them. That is the person that you want.
Thus I would recommend that you not be unduly influenced
by the television ads. You should ask friends or relatives who
have utilized a disability attorney how satisfied they have
been. I also suggest that you interview several different
attorneys to find one that you like before selecting one. You
might ask how many claims they average a year, and what the
percentage of success is. You want an attorney who has a
high winning percentage.
Conclusion.
This article provides an overview of the social security
disability process. The next article will provide information
about the disability guidelines for Parkinson’s Disease in
particular.
Parkinson’s Night
with the Pacers
Thanks to Mary Yeaman and Linda Hinkle, very
active members of Rock Steady Boxing, the Parkin-
son’s night with the Pacers was a huge success.
John Bauman, Dr. Stephanie Combs and Dr. Liz
Zauber came out to talk about Parkinson’s disease
in one of the private suites, then a handful of our
PD friends got to go out on the floor during half-
time. Big thanks to Levy Restaurant who donated
food and catering services to make this event a suc-
cess. We handed out a lot of literature and got to
share with the people at the Pacers game a little
about PD. Thanks Mary and Linda for a great
night!

Parkinson’s Unity Picnic
It was a cold, rainy April day at Garfield
Park. Fonda (the lead singer to the band we
invited) was sick, but the food was good, the
company was great and those of us that
were there had a very nice time. Big thanks
to all of you that braved the weather to come
join us for the Parkinson’s Unity Picnic this
year. PAACI would also like to give a
special thank you to Bruce Eccles and
Medtronics who purchased all the food for
the event. We look forward to better
weather and another great picnic next year!
PAACI Respite Care Subsidy Program The PAACI Board is discussing what new services would help
the needs of persons and families with PD in the Central Indiana
area. One of the options being considered is a respite program. If
you are unfamiliar with what respite is, the following DRAFT
description defines:
Respite care provides the full-time caregiver some “time out” to
relax and take care of his or her personal needs, and at the same
time offers quality care for the person with Parkinson’s disease.
For respite care, the caregiver can either receive in home or adult
day care. In home services consist of non-medical services and
may include assistance with personal care (bathing, dressing,
hygiene), ambulation assistance, meal preparation, meal assis-
tance, companionship, safety supervision, medication reminders
and light housekeeping. The other respite option for the caregiv-
er is use of an adult day care. Not only does adult day care pro-
vide respite for the caregiver, it provides an added benefit of so-
cialization for the person with Parkinson’s.
As we continue to explore developing this program, we are inter-
ested in knowing if there is interest in such a program. We wel-
come your suggestions for the program also. Please get in touch
with Sheri at [email protected] or 317-255-1993, to let
her know your thoughts.
