Social security benefits and how to discover more
If there is not enough information provided by medical files to allow the disability case manager to make a decision on an application, then an exam will be needed. The other reason an exam will be required is to provide current medical information regarding the condition of the claimant. If a CE is required for your claim, try not to worry. Your attendance is mandatory and your application cannot be approved or denied without the exam, once it has been requested. If you cannot attend the scheduled examination, contact your social security disability examiner and reschedule.
