Have Your Own Records

I have read in many of places that when applying for social security obtain your own medical records and hand deliver them at your appointment. Apparently when applying for social security the Disability Determination Specialists are graded on the time it takes for them to process an application - and waiting for medical records is time.

So I plan to have my own copies of all my medical records when I walk in the door on Febuary 1st for my first appointment.
