Social Security Adds to its List of Compassionate Allowances

The Social Security Administration is adding 38 more conditions to its list of Compassionate Allowances.  This is the first additions to the list  since October 2008.  The new conditions range from adult brain disorders to rare diseases that primarily affect children.

The Social Security Administration hopes that with these additions to the list tens of thousands of Americans with devastating disabilities will now get approved for benefits in a matter of days rather than months and years.
