Why Is Consistent Medical Treatment Important in Disability Cases?
A successful disability claim must include a chronological narrative of your medical history, treatments and diagnoses. That type of medical evidence can only be gathered through regular and ongoing medical care and careful tracking of any reports given by experts along the way. These records can provide a glimpse into the daily challenges and adjustments you face due to your disability.
