Three Categories of Immune System Disorders That May Qualify for Disability Benefits

Immune system disorders can encompass a variety of health conditions. To better understand eligibility criteria and how substantial gainful activity will play into your claim, you should seek legal counsel from disability attorneys in Florida.

There are 3 categories of immune system disorders that may qualify for Social Security disability benefits: 

• Autoimmune Disorders - caused by dysfunctional immune responses directed against the body's tissues which results in chronic, multisystem impairments;
• Immune Deficiency Disorders (excluding HIV infection) - recurrent or unusual infections that don't respond properly to treatment, often leading to complications affecting other areas of the body; and
• HIV Infection - susceptibility to infections, cancers and other health impairments. 

Qualifying for Social Security disability benefits includes not only meeting requirements under the specific medical criteria, but also the inability to engage in substantial gainful activity, which is the ability to earn a specified amount of monthly income. An attorney can explain how this works and the income requirements for your condition.

When an immune system disorder qualifies you for Social Security disability benefits, your lost wages that result from your inability to work may be offset. Disability attorneys in Florida can assist with every aspect of your case.
