Because you are disabled.

File for disability benefits.

Appeal your case.

How you presented your initial application was the best you could do at that time given what you knew and were told.

But, if you were not successful, appeal (1) because you are disabled and (2) because you can improve on your presentation.

NY Medical Records Fees

The governor signed the legislation last week amending New York’s public health and mental hygiene laws to eliminate fees for medical records in either electronic or paper form for residents.
