Introduction
At Troy Powell Law Firm, we understand the challenges faced by individuals suffering from Crohn's Disease. If you or a loved one is dealing with this chronic inflammatory bowel disease, you may be entitled to Social Security Disability benefits. Our experienced team of attorneys specializes in helping clients navigate the complexities of the Social Security Disability system. In this comprehensive guide, we will provide you with all the necessary information about Crohn's Disease and how it relates to Social Security Disability benefits.
Understanding Crohn's Disease
Crohn's Disease is a chronic condition that causes inflammation of the digestive tract, primarily affecting the small intestine and sometimes spreading to other parts of the gastrointestinal tract. It is characterized by symptoms such as abdominal pain, diarrhea, rectal bleeding, weight loss, fatigue, and even bowel obstruction. The severity of these symptoms can greatly impact an individual's ability to work and maintain a normal life.
Qualifying for Social Security Disability Benefits
When it comes to qualifying for Social Security Disability benefits, the Social Security Administration (SSA) has specific criteria to determine eligibility. For individuals with Crohn's Disease, meeting these requirements can be challenging, as the severity and frequency of symptoms often vary from person to person. However, with the right legal representation, you can increase your chances of obtaining the benefits you deserve.
Medical Evidence
One of the key factors in securing Social Security Disability benefits is providing sufficient medical evidence to support your claim. This evidence should establish the presence of Crohn's Disease, the severity of your symptoms, and the impact it has on your ability to work and perform daily activities. Our team of attorneys will work closely with you and your healthcare providers to gather all necessary medical documentation required by the SSA.
Residual Functional Capacity (RFC)
The SSA will evaluate your Residual Functional Capacity (RFC), which assesses your ability to perform work-related activities despite the limitations imposed by your Crohn's Disease. This evaluation takes into consideration your physical and mental capabilities, such as your ability to stand, walk, lift, carry, and concentrate. Our experienced attorneys will help prepare a strong RFC report that accurately reflects your limitations.
