(ORIGINAL posting on 9/11/2011REMASTERED on 12/15/20241) I am wondering if the gap in medical records will affect my benefits? (For an initial application and Continuing Disability Review)2) I have a hearing soon & wonder if I am entitled to be reimbursed for all the medical expenses I've paid if awarded benefits?3) Do I take documents to my Social Security Disability hearing with me?4) What if i have a doctor i want to see and sometimes he has a Physician Assistant see me instead, then the Physician Assistant takes over my treatment. Does that still count as seeing the doctor?5) Should i make it specific that i want to see the doctor because seeing a doctor has more weight when applying for disability? Which besides an MD., does social security accept a Doctor of Osteopathy carry weight when it comes to getting treatment?6) This is my condition 42 y/o male, Hiv +, diabetes, high blood pressure, asthma and depression, plus i get sever migraines. Do i have a case, i all this conditions i had more than 15 years?7) If Social Security requires me to have a representative payee, is there anything i can do to prove i can handle my own money?
