[QUOTE="ctmom05, post: 599459, member: 2901"] When I applied for my son to get SSI he was 7 years old and already had a documented treatment history. The powers that be at SS decided we needed to see "their" doctor, in other words a professional of their choosing. If we did not consent to this the claim would be denied. We could fight it, however. I did not see the appointment as optional. When we went to the SS doctor he said "I don't know why they put you thru this. Your son is very clearly disabled." SS was granted. Your experience and my own may be vastly different, but I don't think the doctor exam is purely optional. You can say no, but the other road is probably a much more difficult one to take. [/QUOTE]
