If you have received a claim denial notice from Social Security, you are familiar with the language used in these denials:
We have determined that your condition is not severe enough to be considered disabling. In deciding this, we considered the medical records, your statements, and how your condition affects your ability to work….Doctors and other people in the State agency who are trained in disability evaluation reviewed the evidence and made the determination based on Social Security law and regulations….
Now it turns out that these “doctors and other people” are not so well trained, nor is it likely that they spent more than a few minutes reviewing your file.
