Ideally, Social Security Disability Insurance ensures that disabled individuals are receiving financial aid as they deal with a debilitating health condition that hinders them from doing work. This is not always the case, though, as numerous applications and appeals are denied.
Despite this, a number of applicants are willing to appeal their claims several times, in the hopes of gaining Social Security disability benefits. By doing so, they are inadvertently putting their finances at risk: every moment that a claimant is without benefits can cause medical costs to pile up quickly.

Severe congestive heart failure
Severe chronic kidney disease
Terminal cancer
Once an individual meets the qualifications for the conditions set in the Blue Book, he or she can qualify for disability b ..read more

In fact, a large percentage of disability claims are denied on the first try, with reasons ranging from incomplete claim forms, lack of medical evidence, and failure to comply with the requirements of a consultative exam, among other things.
You may choose to accept the SSA’s rejection, or you can choose to fight it. Taking the time to appeal and getting your paperwork in order on the second try can increase your chances of getting approved for the benefits that you believe you deserve.
