Ssd Disability Question

Question

  • HadIt.com Elder

Anyone know what this means??

My spouse received letter from SSD Letter from SSD Today.

Hers what it states

''You must meet certain medical and non-medical to be entitled to disability payments

We have found that you meet the medical requirements for disability's payments

An explanation of our findings is attach please read carefully.

We have not yet made a decision about whether you meet the non medical Requirements,

but we will make that decision soon,then we will send you a second notice explaining our decision,

After you receive this second notice you will have 60 days to appeal our decision we made about your disability payments.

Then it goes on to say please do not call or contact this office until you have received the second notice.

Another letter in the same envelope states,

The determination on your claim was made by an agency of the state (Dr's and other people who are trained in disability evaluation reviewed the evidence and made the determination based on SS Law and other regulations. & not by your Dr's

The following information used to decide this claim

''Dallas VA Medical Center''...report received 6 /12/15 (although my wife turn in these medical reports on 4/17/15)

We were unable to obtain additional reports, we had enough information to determine this claim''

unquote

Why can't they get other reports from the VA? She has a lot of things they need to look at.

Anyway anyone ever got anything back from SSD like this?

................Thanks Buck

Anything they do at this stage can be appealed. Actually it looks good for winning her claim for me. SSD does have other requirements than just the disability.

Good Luck

Veterans deserve real choice for their health care.

Thanks Pete53,

We think the non medical is that they need to check her work record/history and see if she has paid into the system the last 5/10 years and make sure she is a US Citizen ect,,ect,, which don't make a lick of sense if she is approved for her disability first.

oh well

That's the Government for ya.

It sounds like your wife will get SSDI approved bud. I hope she has better luck at the Dallas VA then I do. I sometimes have 10 or more appts there a month, and they drive me freaking crazy. I prefer Bonham, but all my specialist have to be thru Dallas and Ft Worth. Good luck and keep us posted

Thanks Navy04,

That's about all her medical records is from the VA at least the most recent ones from last 5 years and yes the specialty clinics in Dallas VA, but they closed them down to her in mid treatment last Fall,so since she has ChampVA and some new supplemental Insurance now , she be using private outside care from now on.

I been thinking bout getting me some private Insurance and get away from the VA before they kill me.

Thanks for the well wishes we both appreciate it.
