Are there medical conditions that result in automatic approval for Social Security disability benefits?
There are medical conditions which are enumerated in the Social Security Administration’s Impairment Listing Manual which, if found, will lead to a grant of benefits. However, just claiming to have one of the listed conditions is not enough – you have to demonstrate that you have the condition. If your medical or treatment history does not support your claim that you have the condition, you will likely be denied even if it is listed.
