New tool to assist patients and families in applying for SSDI.

Parkinson's Action Network (PAN) has created a brand new form that can be used by the person with Parkinson's (PWP) when they are getting ready to apply for Social Security Disability Insurance.  The form is set up in a simple, straight forward manner and it can (should) also be used by physicians as a guide to help ensure that important medical information makes its way into the patient's medical document. I like the form because it is not too long and does not require the patient or family to write a great deal to complete the form.  Here is a link to the PAN website and the form.
