Social Security Disability - Digestive System Diseases

The Social Security Administration (SSA) is apprehensive to grant disability benefits to a claimant with a digestive system disorder because many of these diseases tend to not make the 12 month requirement. With treatment these disorders tend be treated with medication quite adequately. The Social Security Administration (SSA) classifies digestive system disorders into three categories: interference with nutrition, complication of the disease, and multiple recurrent lesions.
