There is some new hope for those who suffer from Pulmonary Fibrosis, an untreatable lung disease that is fast-moving and quickly debilitating. The Social Security Administration has just added Pulmonary Fibrosis (PF) to the list of Compassionate Allowances, which is a fast-track program meant to expedite disability benefits claims for those with certain diseases.
According to PRNewswire, the Coalition for Pulmonary Fibrosis has expressed its appreciation that this devastating condition has been added to the list of 37 conditions eligible for faster case review. If you or a loved one suffer from Pulmonary Fibrosis, know that you qualify for Social Security disability benefits, which can bring financial relief as you and your family cope with this aggressive disease.
Pulmonary Fibrosis, or PF, is so brutal that most patients live less than 3 years after being diagnosed. Adding insult to tragedy, some sufferers wait that long just to get a decision on their application for Social Security disability. About 40,000 people die each year from PF.
Fortunately for those suffering from PF, the new status might allow them to receive their Social Security disability benefits within days instead of months or years.
If you are concerned that your medical condition is rapidly advancing but your benefits claim is continuing to drag, consult with a lawyer to discuss your application for disability benefits.
If you or your loved one are suffering from a severe physical or mental disability, you should contact a Social Security Disability lawyer immediately to learn about your rights and determine eligibility.
