Improving Social Security’s Collection of Medical Evidence in Social Security Disability Claims

Latest Articles

After you complete your application for Social Security disability benefits, the Social Security claims examiner contacts your treating doctors and providers to get a copy of your medical reports. Unfortunately, their attempts to get those records are not always successful and that can result in a denial of your claim.

The General Accounting Office has just issued a new report about ways Social Security can improve the collection of medical reports and evidence in Social Security Disabilty claims.

At The Law Offices of Nancy L. Cavey, your St. Petersburg and Tampa Social Security Disability lawyers,  we contact your doctors and get all of your medical records. We send your records to the Social Security Office on a regular basis so your file is complete so the Social Security office has all the information they need to make a decision on your Social Security Disability claim.

Answering these broad-based questions isn’t easy. Help is a phone call away. You can contact Nancy Cavey, an experienced long-term disability attorney at 727-477-3263.
