UNEMPLOYED, UNINSURED? NEED A DOCTOR IN LIMESTONE COUNTY?

As a disability advocate, I often see individuals who are disabled, uninsured and unemployed.  They can't afford to see a doctor.  

Here is a possible source of medical care that you may not have considered if you live in Limestone County:
 Limestone County Health Department
20371 Clyde Mabry Drive
Athens AL 35611
256-232-3200
Website

This health department offers primary care, women's services, social services and more.  They accept patients from all income levels and charge a sliding scale fee based on your income and ability to pay.

If you live in another county, check with the health department in your county.

Here is also a state wide list of medical clinics in Alabama that offer reduced cost medical care.  The clinics are pretty much listed in alphabetical order, so check the entire list to find one close to where you live.

YOUR DISABIILTY CLAIM WAS DENIED. IT WAS PROBABLY A MISTAKE.

IS YOUR DISABILITY DENIAL CORRECT? You applied for Social Security disability.  They sent you to a doctor for an examination, then denied your benefits.  Should you assume that Social Security made the correct decision?  No.  You should assume they made a bad decision because they probably did. In nearly one-half of denials which are appealed, a judge will review the evidence and overturn the denial to award full benefits to the claimant.  In simple terms, Social Security got the first decision wrong. Never assume a denial by Social Security is correct.  Assume it is wrong and can be overturned. What is the biggest mistake you can make after being denied by Social Security?  Failing to appeal the denial within 60 days is the single biggest mistake you can make. Claimants lose millions of dollars every year by failure to appeal denied claims.  Don't make this mistake. What are the risks if I appeal and lose?  There is ...

BAD BACKS ARE DISABLING

Bad backs and other musculoskeletal disorders are the most awarded impairments for Social Security disability.  If you have a spinal or back impairment that is severe, it may qualify for a disability benefit.  You will need objective medical evidence, such as an MRI, to support the claim. Social Security must also determine in what ways your symptoms limit your ability to perform work activities like sitting, standing, walking, stooping, kneeling, lifting, etc.  This is best determined by getting your doctor to complete a form called a "Medical Source Statement."  This form is available from my office free of charge. If you would like for us to evaluate your Social Security disability claim (for a back impairment or any other impairment) - please call us at (256) 799-0297.  Consultations are free.
