Disability attorney What they say
If you intentionally miss the consultative exam and do not try to reschedule, your social security disability claim could be denied due to your failure to cooperate. The exam is paid for by the Social Security Administration. Q: Who will perform a CE requested by the Social Security Administration? A: The disability manager for your case will typically not request that your physician conduct the CE. The examination is normally conducted by a physician who has not treated you for the current injury or condition. Speak with the social security disability examiner assigned to your case if you believe you have not been treated fairly by the doctor who provided your CE.
