YOUR MEDICATION LIST
Telling Social Security Disability About the Medications You Take
What Information Do I Need to Complete SSA Form HA-4632?
Form HA-4632 isn’t a particularly complex or long form, but it can be difficult to keep track of all of your medications and figure out what information will be relevant to the Social Security Administration (SSA).
Let’s take this step by step:
Step #1: List every prescription medication you take.
Anything a doctor has prescribed should go on your Claimant’s Medications form. Include all of the following information:
- The name of each medication you’re taking
- The dosage of each medication
- The date you were prescribed each medication
- The reasons for being prescribed each medication
- The physician who prescribed the medication
Step #2: Include any nonprescription medication.
The form also includes a section for any medicine that wasn’t prescribed by your doctor. This can include any over-the-counter medication or supplements.
Don’t assume that something you’re taking isn’t relevant. Even things like aspirin, vitamins or melatonin should be included if you’re taking them along with your prescription medications.
Step #3: Make sure your list of medications matches your medical records.
Any inconsistencies in your file can make it harder to qualify for disability benefits. You need to make sure there aren’t differences between what’s on your Form HA-4632 and what’s in your medical records.
Even simple things like forgetting about injected medications or not accurately stating when dosages for certain prescriptions were adjusted can make it more difficult to make your case for benefits.
If you need help with this form or any other paperwork you need to file for your appeal, our Michigan disability lawyers can assist you.
Why is SSA Form HA-4632 So Important?
Seeing the medications you take all together like this can make it easier for Social Security to understand your condition and how long you’ve been suffering from symptoms that make it impossible to work.
SSA Form HA-4632, when properly filled out, gives Social Security a timeline of what medications you tried, when you tried them and how much effort you’ve put into addressing your symptoms.
Showing that you’ve sincerely tried to treat your medical issues is important. It’s not enough to just have a medical problem when you apply for disability benefits.
You need to make it clear that you tried different therapies and made attempts to get healthier so that you can work, but you’re still struggling.
It’s harder for Social Security to argue that you haven’t done enough to address your medical issues if you can point to an extensive list of medications and treatments under guidance from multiple doctors.
