Description

This comprehensive reference is invaluable for general practitioners and specialists in Social Security law. You'll find in-depth discussion of medical issues influencing a client's disability claim, guidance on effectively presenting a client's medical disability, and essential elements in establishing a claim's medical validity. Hirschman begins with the fundamentals, such as anatomy and reading a medical chart, then takes you step-by-step through the elements of proof each of the Social Security disability listings require. Illustrative diagrams are helpful graphic aids.
