My entries and thoughts on social security help
It is almost impossible to win a social security benefits claim with an unresponsive or unsupportive physician. Q: If you are applying for social security benefits and you miss a deadline or fail to reply to a mailed notice, should you be concerned? A: Not responding to letters or notifications can absolutely have a negative impact on your claim. A claimant who has filed for social security benefits should be sure to immediately open any notices he receives from Social Security. For example, if you fail to open a hearing notice, you will miss your hearing date. Missing a court date can put your claim in jeopardy.
