Today the hearing impaired disability is not a rarity. In fact, a research done recently or hearing impaired disability has shown that one out of every eight people become disabled in one or the other every year. For men normally in their thirties, this is a ratio of one in every five and for women in their thirties; this becomes one in every three. Although most of the people suffer from hearing impaired disabilities as a result of heart conditions or some other ailments, but as the years set on or due to some sort of accident or disease, many people develop a hearing impairment.
A hearing impairment disability is the full or partial decrease in the ability of an individual to detect and understand sounds. For people who suffer from hearing impairments, there are certain benefits available from Social Security that are provided and granted by the Social Security Law. A hearing impairment disability is a qualified disability and confers on the people the right to receive certain benefits. These benefits are the legal right of the disabled people and they should make the necessary research to file for them. There are a number of law firms that deal specifically with the Social Security Laws and know all the requirements. There are some common causes why most of the people applying for hearing impairment befits filed with Social Security are rejected, these are; inaccurate application of the Social Security laws; incomplete application for Social Security disability benefits, unsupported claims of incapacity to work or find a job; incorrect and/or insufficient medical records.
But in case people have filed for benefits under Social Security for their hearing impairment and have had their application turned down, it is not the end of the line. The application of the disabled people is not turned down for good and they can re-file. Of course this time people should make sure their own research and paper work is complete. Also people should consult with a lawyer or social worker who specializes in the area of disability benefits and hearing impairment disability. Filing for benefits for the hearing impairment disability is the legal right; it also establishes the impairment as a legal fact, and helps in insurance claims as well as any employment opportunities that people may be seeking. Such disability benefits can also help people to cover any cost of treatment that they may subsequently incur. There are some physical ailments that may cause the impairment to the hearing, if people have gone through any of these they should opt for a behavioral audiogram.
Some of the more common conditions or diseases that can lead to hearing impairment are; measles which may result in auditory nerve damage; meningitis may damage the auditory nerve or the cochlea; autoimmune disease has only recently been recognized as a probable cause for cochlear damage. Although probably unusual, it is possible for autoimmune processes to target the cochlea specifically, without symptoms affecting other organs; Wegener's granulomatosis is also one of the autoimmune conditions that may precipitate hearing loss; mumps or Epidemic parotitis may result in profound sensorineural hearing loss.
