Questionnaires for Treating Physicians

One of the most valuable services a competent attorney can provide in your social security disability case is preparation of questionnaires for your doctors to complete. Usually office notes and other medical records focus on diagnosis and treatment, not the impact that these conditions have on your ability to function in a job setting. Questionnaires prepared by your attorney and completed by the physician are one of the best ways to bridge this gap and provide the kind of evidence necessary to win your social security disability case. Generally, the attorney will review the medical records and craft a questionnaire consistent with the physician’s findings and applicable to the social security regulations and guidelines.
