RE: if you apply for disability
Sure they can, work comp and SSA work in different ways.
Work comp only looks at the body part(s) approved for treatment per the work comp injury. To qualify for SSA one must be totally disabled under their guidelines. Social Security Admnistration takes the whole body into consideration when qualifying a person for SSI or SSDI. |
