Hip Replacement

Types of Disabilities

Generally this type of surgery is successful. Whether you are having a new hip, knee, or ankle implanted or you are having work done to repair an existing hip, knee, or ankle the SSA is generally going to take these operations as successful. To qualify, you must show the surgery or reconstruction on your hip, failed and that you will be unable to walk for a period of 12 months or more. In order to qualify children must satisfy the same test as an adult.

For this condition to be severe enough to meet the social Security Administration Administration's Listing the claimant must have:

Documentation showing the failure of reconstructive surgery on the hip AND
Be unable to walk effectively on the joint for at least 12 months.

Because Social Security Administration mostly takes hip replacement as being successful you are strongly advised to have a lawyer on your side to help prove that you need benefits. A lawyer will help show that you qualify for social Security benefits because he or she is familiar with the Social Security System and how it works. Don't delay and email or call 800-248-1100 ,the Social Security Group, for more information as soon as possible.
