As a rare cerebral palsy disorder characterized by a number of other severe symptoms, Sjogren-Larsson Syndrome (SLS) meets the Social Security Administration’s (SSA’s) medical eligibility requirements for disability benefits.

The SSA knows children and adults with SLS require significant supportive care throughout their lives. The severely debilitating nature of the disorder lead to its inclusion in the Compassionate Allowances (CAL) program, which ensures Social Security Disability (SSD) claims are reviewed more quickly and approved as often as possible.

Children affected by Seckel Syndrome (SCKL) automatically meet the medical requirements for receiving disability benefits. This syndrome is also recognized by the Social Security Administration (SSA) as an inherent and often devastating disability. For this reason it is approved for quick disability review under the Compassionate Allowances (CAL) program.

Disability Benefit Programs

Kids usually get benefits through the SSA’s Supplemental Security Income (SSI) program, but Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) benefits are sometimes available too.

Disability Benefit Programs

The SSA has two disability programs:

A rare form of brain tumor, oligodendroglioma grows slowly and rarely metastasizes outside of the nervous system. Low-grade tumors may be present for years before a diagnosis is made.

When discovered early, oligodendroglioma can often be treated through radiation, chemotherapy, and surgical procedures, and can qualify for Social Security Disability (SSD) benefits when they are discovered.

A rare genetic disorder in which extra chromosomes disrupt normal development, Pallister-Killian Syndrome (PKS) causes severe developmental delays, communication deficits, and a range of serious, often life-threatening complications.

The Social Security Administration (SSA) understands the inherently debilitating nature of this disorder, which is why it’s part of the Compassionate Allowances (CAL) program. CAL ensures the review disability applications filed for PKS happen quickly and it’s uncommon for one to be denied for medical reasons.

The Social Security Administration’s (SSA’s) disability programs are notorious for their lengthy review processes and sparse approvals. There are some conditions though that are essentially guaranteed to medically qualify for benefits. Progressive Bulbar Palsy (PBP) is one of them.

Chronic Idiopathic Intestinal Pseudo Obstruction (CIIPO) is a rare digestive disorder in which food, air, fluid, and stool do not move through the gastrointestinal tract normally. Physical abnormalities and injuries can cause this disorder.

No matter the cause, it is qualified for disability benefits through the Social Security Administration (SSA). It is additionally qualified for expedited review under the SSA’s Compassionate Allowances (CAL) program.

Disability Benefit Programs

The SSA administers two disability programs for which you may qualify with CIIPO:

A rare form of cancer that can affect individuals of any age but is most commonly seen in children age three and younger, Atypical Teratoid/Rhabdoid Tumor meets the medical requirements disability benefits from the Social Security Administration (SSA). It is, in fact, automatically medically qualified under the SSA’s Compassionate Allowances (CAL) program, though the applicant must still meet the technical eligibility rules of Social Security Disability (SSD) in order to get benefits.

Disability Benefit Programs

The SSA has two disability programs:

A rare and aggressive form of cancer that develops in the soft tissues of blood and lymph vessel walls and lymph nodes, Angiosarcoma can affect any area of the body. Tumors most often appear in the breasts and skin but are common in the spleen, liver, and other deep tissues. Metastatic tumors are often present at the time of diagnosis.

Even when surgical removal of the primary tumor is successful, the prognosis is generally poor. Metastatic tumors are common and the disease is often in its more advanced stages at the time of diagnosis.

As a mental illness that causes mood disturbances, breaks from reality, and cyclical periods of mania and depression, schizoaffective disorder often makes it impossible to maintain employment. Even with proper treatment, you may still experience psychotic episodes or suffer from manic-depressive symptoms. These are only a few of the issues that can make maintaining a job difficult as an individual with schizoaffective disorder.
