Suffering from coronary artery disease, angina or arrhythmia and all the ensuing complications can make it impossible to live life the way you used to. With a medical history of your heart disease, it might seem far-fetched or impossible to think that your claims for heart disease SSDI benefits could be denied. Sadly, benefits are often denied by the state agency, and it often takes quite a while to work through the options. It is, in fact, a common occurrence to have SSDI benefits claims denied. If you and your lawyer believe that the claim was denied without merit and want to appeal, your application will go to an Administrative Law Judge.
At this point, it's extremely important to bring a social security disability attorney on board to assist you, if you haven't already. If your case is once again denied, you and your attorney will have to consider the evidence you've presented for your heart disease SSDI benefits case, and prepare for the Appeals Council. A history of your symptoms, and tracking any and all side effects or new symptoms of your heart disease will become very important to your case.
After being denied twice by the State agency, then by the Administrative Law Judge, your next step in the process is to file an appeal at the Appeals Council in Virginia. There, the Appeals Council will review the Administrative Law Judge's decision and evidence and proceed in one of two ways.
1. The Appeals Council can send the case back to the Administrative Law Judge for further review and another trial.
2. The Appeals Council can accept the Judge's ruling of your heart disease SSDI benefits case. If this happens, the next step is filing a complaint with the U.S. District Council, who will review the Appeals Council's decision.
Working with a Social Security lawyer who specializes in heart disease SSDI cases can be an important advantage as you struggle through the complicated process.
