Cancer

Our lawyers help Oklahomans obtain cancer disability benefits

If you have been diagnosed with cancer, your bills don't stop. However, it may be difficult to continue working and receiving a steady paycheck due to various treatments. One of your options is to pursue Social Security Disability Insurance benefits or Supplemental Security Income benefits.

In some cases, the Social Security Administration approves benefits for cancer patients, but it's a difficult claim to make. Many patients are treated and return to good health within a year. Furthermore, cancer may not prevent a person from performing many routine tasks required in most jobs (walking, standing, sitting, lifting, speaking, hearing, etc.).

In its impairment listing manual, the Social Security Administration considers certain types of cancer under the category of "malignant neoplastic diseases." These are malignant cancers such as lung cancer, leukemia, brain tumors, liver cancer, breast cancer, lymphoma, and others. If you have been diagnosed with cancer, you may be eligible for SSDI benefits or SSI benefits.
