Will I Be Entitled To Health Insurance If I Win My Case?
Yes. After you have received SSDI benefits for two years, you will automatically be enrolled in Medicare. Social Security will enroll you in Medicare Part A, which pays for inpatient hospital costs. You will also be entitled to enroll in Part B, which covers doctors’ bills and other medical expenses. Part A is free. Part B requires a monthly premium payment.
If you receive Supplemental Security Income (SSI), you will be entitled to Medicaid immediately.
I just wanted to let you know how happy I was with the job that Maggie Langdale did in getting me approved for SSDI and maybe more importantly, not having to have a review for another 5-7 years! Now I can concentrate more on my health, especially with the added benefit of Medicare next December.
Maggie went out of her way explaining every step of the process and answering all my questions on the phone or immediately after I emailed her. We reviewed all my answers to the lengthy paperwork and made several important changes. I would definitely advise anyone to use Maggie and your law firm!
