Common Medical Conditions for SSDI

Eligible for SSD benefits?

The Social Security Administration is required to approve any claim that provides evidence of a disabling condition that is expected to prevent the applicant from returning to work for at least a year or which will result in the death of the individual. Certain medical conditions are more commonly approved than others, and these are contained in a reference known as the "Blue Book," but there is not an exclusive list of illnesses and injuries that are eligible for coverage.
