Heart disease is a major cause of disability in Michigan and all other states. Unfortunately, it prevents many from keeping steady employment. If your cardiac condition makes it impossible to work, you may qualify for heart disability benefits in Michigan through Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) or Supplemental Security Income (SSI). However, the Social Security heart condition criteria can be complex, requiring strong medical evidence and fierce legal representation.
At Robert D. Paulbeck, Attorney at Law, we help clients in Trenton, Wayne County and throughout Michigan secure the SSDI benefits they deserve for their cardiac condition. With over 30 years of experience, heart disease disability lawyer Robert D. Paulbeck knows how to build a strong case that maximizes the chance for success.
Qualifying Heart Conditions For SSD Benefits
Not all heart conditions qualify for disability benefits for heart failure. The Cardiac Blue Book listing outlines specific medical criteria. Some qualifying conditions include:
- Chronic heart failure
- Coronary artery disease
- Recurrent arrhythmias
- Cardiomyopathy
- Heart valve disorders
Even if your condition is not listed, you may qualify if it severely limits your ability to work.
Medical Evidence Needed For Your SSD Claim
To qualify for cardiac disability benefits in Trenton, you must submit strong medical documentation, such as:
- EKG/ECG results to identify heart abnormalities
- Echocardiograms showing structural heart damage
- Stress tests measuring your heart’s response to exertion
- Blood work showing cardiac risk factors
- Surgical records and hospital admissions proving medical history
- Medication lists and treatment plans showing ongoing care
SSA also considers your cardiac functional limitation, including how your condition impacts physical activity, mobility and stamina.
