Arrow Jill A. Singer:
Social Security Disability Attorney

The Social Security Administration (SSA) has a “List of Impairments” that describes medical conditions that are considered so severe that they automatically mean a person is disabled as defined by law.
General categories:

  1. Musculoskeletal system
  2. Special senses and speech
  3. Respiratory system
  4. Cardiovascular system
  5. Digestive system
  6. Genitourinary impairments
  7. Hematological disorders
  8. Skin disorders
  9. Endocrine disorders
  10. Impairments that affect multiple body systems
  11. Immune disorders
  12. Mental disorders

You Can Go Back to Work Without Losing Benefits
Even after you start receiving disability benefits, the SSA allows you to return to work.  There are special rules that help people keep their benefits and Medicare coverage while testing the ability to work.  These rules are called “work incentives” or “employment support” programs.

You Can Get Free Help with Employment Training
The Ticket to Work program helps disability beneficiaries receive free training and other services they need to get back to work.  Most beneficiaries receive a “ticket” that they can take to the provider of their choice who can offer the kind of services they need.
