UNDERSTANDING
Social Security Disability
SSD benefits provide essential financial support to individuals who are unable to work due to severe medical conditions. These benefits, administered by the Social Security Administration (SSA), act as a lifeline for those in need.
To qualify for SSD benefits, your medical condition must:
Prevent you from performing substantial gainful activity (SGA).
Be expected to last at least one year or result in death.
The SSA uses a five-step evaluation process to determine eligibility, which includes reviewing your medical records, work history, and ability to perform any type of work. Navigating this process requires a thorough understanding of the SSA’s requirements, and that’s where our expertise can make a difference.
Additionally, some applicants have medical conditions that are so severe that their conditions obviously meet disability standards. To quickly identify and help these individuals, Social Security has a list of Compassionate Allowances, or conditions that they will qualify for benefits based on evaluation of minimal, official medical records. There are also 14 categories of “listed impairments,” which describe specific medical criteria for various impairments that will essentially result in an automatic disability determination, without the need to consider age, education, or work experience. Most types of illnesses, however, can vary from minor to severe. This makes defining disability tricky., as it depends on how badly the illness or disease has affected you.

Merit Disability was instrumental in helping me get on Social Security Disability following a life altering back injury. It didn’t cost a lot, and it has helped me to afford living as a disabled person.
Tim, Kody, and Josh were really responsive, professional, and on top of things. If you wanted to vent or had a stupid question, they put aside what they were doing and listened. Great people.
