Lupus is a chronic autoimmune disease that causes inflammation, tissue and organ damage, and can lead to organ failure, disability and death, according to the Lupus Foundation of America (LFA). Many individuals diagnosed with lupus are unable to continue working. Those who can’t work for 12 months or longer may be eligible for Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) benefits they paid for while employed. This federal disability insurance coverage provides important benefits, including monthly income, access to Medicare, and free assistance and protection when attempting to return to work.

 

Having expert SSDI representation can help individuals with lupus receive Social Security disability benefits sooner, especially if they are approved with their initial application and avoid the appeals process. empower by Allsup is an online tool that helps people with severe disabilities determine their likelihood of being approved for SSDI, and also includes return-to-work assistance for those individuals who may experience medical recovery.
