Certain claimants with severe or catastrophic diseases may get Social Security disability benefits sooner if they meet the rules for a Compassionate Allowance.
A Compassionate Allowance means that a claimant may not have to wait up to 24 months for Social Security to award benefits. These individuals may be approved simply by proving a doctor's diagnosis and basic medical records. I've seen these awards made in less than one month.
For a complete list of the more than 200 diseases which qualify for a Compassionate Allowance, please use the following link:
