One
of the hardest parts of claiming your disability benefits from Social
Security is the strict guidelines they have for what constitutes a
disability. However, there are certain medical conditions that Social
Security automatically covers the moment the condition is diagnosed.
Some of these medical conditions include:
Acute
Myeloid Leukemia
Acute
Myeloid Leukemia (AML) is a cancer of the blood. This condition
causes the bone marrow to produce immature white blood cells that do
not perform their regular functions. AML is a life-threatening
condition if not treated immediately.
Prostate
Cancer
Prostate
cancer is the second most common cancer among men after skin cancer.
It is common among older men of African or Jamaican descent. To be
considered eligible, the cancer must have progressed or recurred
despite prompt medical intervention.
Lupus
Lupus
is an autoimmune disease that causes white blood cells to attack
other healthy cells. Women have a higher risk of contracting the
disease, especially those of child-bearing age.
The
list of illnesses and disabilities automatically covered by the SSDI
program is long, with each malady having a strict set of conditions
that must be met. That in mind, you should consult an experienced
social security lawyer before processing a claim to see if your
medical condition is automatically covered by Social Security.
