Cuando solicitas el Seguro de Discapacidad del Seguro Social (SSDI) o el Ingreso Suplementario de Seguridad (SSI), debes proporcionar información sobre tu tratamiento médico y dónde se encuentran tus expedientes, pero no necesitas obtener los expedientes médicos por tu cuenta. Durante el procesamiento de tu solicitud, el Seguro Social o los Servicios Estatales de Determinación de Discapacidad se comunican directamente con tus proveedores médicos.
La Administración del Seguro Social cuenta con un sistema llamado Electronic Records Express, que permite a personas autorizadas (médicos, hospitales, clínicas, escuelas, abogados, etc.) enviar electrónicamente los expedientes relevantes para tu caso. Estos expedientes transferidos electrónicamente se asocian de inmediato con tu expediente y son accesibles tanto para la Administración del Seguro Social como para los Servicios de Determinación de Discapacidad.
Puedes encontrar más información sobre Electronic Records Express en http://www.socialsecurity.gov/ere/.
Los expedientes médicos son fundamentales para el éxito de tu solicitud de discapacidad.
Tus expedientes médicos deben ser detallados y estar actualizados. Asegúrate de visitar a tu médico regularmente. Muchas solicitudes de discapacidad son denegadas debido a expedientes médicos desactualizados.
Si te niegan los beneficios de Discapacidad del Seguro Social o si tienes preguntas sobre cómo solicitar la discapacidad, contacta a Disability Help Group of Arizona por teléfono al (888) 939 4692 o a través de la web en https://disabilityhelpgroup.org/.
