Why might I need disability documentation?

Disability documentation is often required to formally verify that a health condition is impacting a person’s ability to perform their job or manage daily responsibilities. It may be used to support:

• Applications for SSDI or SSI through the Social Security Administration
• Short-term or long-term disability insurance claims
• FMLA leave for personal or family medical needs
• Requests for workplace accommodations or reduced schedules
• Academic accommodations for students with qualifying health conditions

Without accurate medical documentation, patients may encounter delays or denials in receiving benefits. A clear, medically supported statement from a licensed provider can help improve the success of a disability claim.

What conditions can I receive disability documentation for?

NEXXUS Level Primary Care offers disability documentation for a wide range of qualifying medical conditions. These may include, but are not limited to:

• Chronic pain and musculoskeletal disorders: arthritis, fibromyalgia, back injuries
• Cardiovascular and pulmonary issues: congestive heart failure, COPD, severe asthma
• Neurological disorders: epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, migraines
• Mental health conditions: major depressive disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, PTSD, bipolar disorder
• Autoimmune diseases: lupus, Crohn’s disease, rheumatoid arthritis
• Cancer-related fatigue and treatment complications

Each condition is evaluated individually. Constance takes into account symptom severity, functional limitations, and clinical evidence before issuing documentation.

What can I expect from the disability documentation process?

The process begins with a telemedicine consultation where Constance gathers a comprehensive medical history, reviews any relevant medical records or test results, and performs a symptom assessment. You should be prepared to discuss how your condition affects their ability to work or perform daily activities.

After the consultation, Constance may complete the necessary forms or write a supporting letter that outlines:

• The patient’s diagnosis and history
• Symptoms and functional limitations
• Prognosis and treatment plan
• A clear statement supporting disability or accommodation needs

Depending on the complexity of the request, additional documentation or follow-up may be required.

How long will it take to receive my disability documentation?

Most disability forms and letters are completed within 5 to 7 business days following the telemedicine evaluation, assuming all necessary records and consents are in place. More complex forms, employer-specific documents, or requests that require additional information may take longer. Patients are encouraged to schedule evaluations in advance of important deadlines whenever possible.

With convenient telehealth appointments and a patient-centered approach, NEXXUS Level Primary Care is committed to helping individuals access the documentation they need to move forward with confidence and support.
