My husband was diagnosed with chronic heart failure in South Florida by his cardiologist. Is it true he can receive social security benefits?
A: Your husband being diagnosed with Chronic Heart Failure is one thing. Receiving those benefits is another. Here’s what you need to know about eligibility.
How Chronic Heart Failure (CHF) Patients in South Florida May Qualify for Social Security Disability Benefits:
- Good News! You do not need to have fluid retention at the time of evaluation. Your medical records do need to show a history.
- Medical News! Your CHF condition must be severe enough to require medication.
- Diagnostic News! You need to prove that you either have systolic or diastolic failure. Make sure you have the diagnostic info needed by Social Security.
- Serious News! You must have been hospitalized 3 times during the last 12 months for reasons related to heart failure and fluid retention.
It is important to talk with an experienced South Florida Social Security disability attorney. Your attorney can help you prepare your paperwork to get the results you are looking for.

FAQs
Social Security Disability Insurance
- I have taken over the counter pain relievers for years. My Broward County M.D. just told me I may be at risk for liver disease, or Cirrhosis. I’m not even a drinker, is that possible?
- Many years ago I was diagnosed with epilepsy. At that time, I was able to control my condition with medication, and my Broward County employer gave me permission to work from home. Now that I’m having more seizures, I am concerned that it is not safe for me to be working anymore. I heard I may qualify for disability benefits. What should I do now?
- My blood disorder doesn’t necessarily fit the listing requirement that Social Security has in place. Does that mean that I may not qualify for disability benefits?
