In some cases, Disability Benefits for Ovarian Cancer will be automatically approved and expedited.

The process of obtaining Social Security Disability benefits can drag on for months, but gravely ill individuals often cannot wait that long for benefits to be approved. The Social Security Administration (SSA) recognizes this fact. In 2008, the SSA established a “Compassionate Allowances” program and identified certain types of debilitating diseases that should automatically be approved for disability benefits.

Advance stages of ovarian cancer fall into this category.  If you are suffering from ovarian cancer that is inoperable, unresectable or has distant metastases, your disease is considered a “Compassionate Allowances Condition” and you should obtain Social Security Disability benefits rather quickly.

If your cancer doesn’t qualify for a “Compassionate Allowances Condition,” you could still qualify for benefits during the initial application stage if you meet the following criteria:

• You have ovarian cancer with germ cell tumors that are either progressive or recurrent after an initial treatment; or
• You have ovarian cancer with non-germ cell tumors with at least one of the following:
  • Tumor extension beyond the pelvis
  • Cancer that has metastasized beyond regional lymph nodes
  • Cancer that is recurrent after the initial treatment

Even if it appears that you may qualify for benefits, it would be in your best interest to have your case managed by a disability attorney. The experienced staff and attorneys at McDonald Law Firm will thoroughly and accurately prepare and file your disability claim and work to obtain your benefits as quickly as possible.

Don’t meet the criteria for Disability for Ovarian Cancer? Don’t despair.

Don’t be discouraged if you don’t meet any of the above criteria. If you can show that your condition or your treatment prohibits you from working any job, you could still qualify for Disability for Ovarian Cancer.

Proving you are unable to work can be technical and complicated ― and it is best left to an someone with experience. The attorneys at McDonald Law Firm are skilled in all areas of Disability law and know what to do.

Denied Disability for Ovarian Cancer? Don’t give up.

No one wants to receive a denial letter in the mail, but the sad truth is that it happens all the time.  More than 65 percent of people who apply for Disability benefits are denied during the initial application stage.

And while you may feel like giving up, that is the last thing you should do right now. Your best chance for success is to appeal and, if you haven’t already, hire an experienced Disability attorney.

The Disability team at McDonald Law Firm routinely convinces the federal government to reverse an unfavorable decision and award clients the Disability benefits they so badly need. Time is of the essence. You only have 60 days to appeal a denied Disability claim after you receive your denial letter.
