If You're On Partial Disability Can You Keep It If You're Going To Have Surgery?
If you are on partial disability but going to have surgery can you keep the disability?
Hi. I don't know what you mean by 'partial disability'. Social Security only pays disability benefits to people who are considered unable to do all types of work. So, if what you are receiving is a disability benefit from Social Security, then having surgery wouldn't have any effect on your benefits unless as a result of the surgery you become capable of returning to work.
Best, Jerry
