Dr. Marnin E. Fischbach’s commentary in “Fix the Disability System: Patients Are Gaming It — at High Cost to Themselves and Society” stereotypes people who seek disability as fraudulent and self-interested. An attorney who specializes in Social Security disability cases disagrees with him, according to the Post Gazette.

Fischbach states that the Social Security Administration (SSA) does not check to see if the individual remains disabled. The Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) attorney contends this is untrue. Social Security requires continuing disability reviews and administrative law judges instruct Social Security to review individuals because they expect improvement.

The SSA will then gather current records from treating doctors to determine if the beneficiaries of SSDI continue to experience significant functional impairment.

Fischbach further states that SSDI beneficiaries have a vested financial and psychological interest in not getting better. Still, it can take more than a year for some to qualify for Social Security disability. And when these individuals are not working, they are under significant financial stress. Without work, these individuals remain at home, feeling isolated and unproductive.

SSDI beneficiaries have genuine and severe issues. They aim to obtain benefits to recover and become productive members of society again.
