Social Security and Medical Treatment


No matter what your problem is keeping you from working, such as a back condition or depression, you will need medical treatment to win your Social Security Disability case. The Social Security Judge looks at your medical records to support the claims you make about your illness and limitations.

It is often difficult to get care, but it is the essence of a Social Security Disability case.

You must weigh the cost of medical care versus a life time of Social Security benefits.

Even bad health insurance will get you some treatment to show your ongoing limitations and problems.

If you have no health insurance, then you must try to get a medical card from the State of Illinois.

Some communities in Illinois have free health clinics or low pay health clinics.

Some hospitals or clinics will provide charity care.

Whatever kind of care is available you must search for it. It will often make the difference between winning and losing your Social Security Disability case.
