Most Common Heart Conditions That Qualify For SSDI Benefits

What are the most common heart conditions that qualify for Social Security disability benefits?

Your heart’s job is to pump blood through the body. When the heart can’t pump blood effectively, cells begin to die and organs (such as the brain, lungs, and liver) may become damaged or even shut down.

Heart disease is one of the common reasons that people apply for Social Security disability benefits (SSDI). The most common heart conditions are:

Some of the more common heart problems which often qualify for Social Security disability benefits include chronic heart failure, chronic venous insufficiency, congestive heart failure, coronary heart failure and heart transplant.

Having a heart condition does not automatically qualify an applicant for Social Security disability benefits (SSDI). One must either meet the criteria outlined in section 4.00 of the Social Security Administration’s listing of impairments (known as the Blue Book) or be able to prove that, due to the limitations of your condition, you unable to perform any job in the national economy, considering your age, education, and past work.

Many people who qualify for SSDI for heart disease are denied the first time they apply. This is not because they don’t qualify, but because they have not provided all the documentation needed to support a disability claim.
