[QUOTE="EhlerDave, post: 2661006, member: 2564"] I know they will send him for "vocational testing" to see if they can find a job you can do, it does not matter if you know how or want to do the job. (my testing was in Tulsa and lasted 5 days) The SS attorneys get a % not like workman's comp that get a cut of a check for years, SS limits the amount the attorney gets. Well they did a few years ago. His age is the first reason they will deny, if he has been denied then the appeals should be on going, if he made it to a Judge and was denied, that may make it harder. To get Medicare takes two years of waiting, that time starts when he applied. (my two years was over before getting approved) The entire process is set up to get the applicant to give up, I was sent letters with a 20 day time to respond, then the SS folks would get back to me in 120-180 days. Now that is a kick in the butt. I was sent to 4 Dr's for evaluation for SS, when I made it to court I got to see those reports (the report belongs to SS and you do not see them) My Judge was ticked, we had wasted his time, all 4 of the SS Docs had recommended me to be approved, yet I was denied. This crap cost me everything but my house, it has been many years and we still have not recovered from what we lost. My case was over in 5 min. the Judge was not happy with the SS guy or the Vocational man in his room. Best of luck to get him the medical help needed. [/QUOTE]
