How to help the Disability Determination Bureau process your claim

  • Be sure the Disability Determination Bureau (DDB) has your current address and phone number. Any time your address or phone number changes after you've filed your disability application, DDB needs to know. Call 1-800-462-1938 to report these changes.

  • Provide complete names, addresses, and dates of treatment for doctors, clinics, hospitals, and other health professionals who have treated you for your medical conditions.

  • If you see a new healthcare provider, are hospitalized, or develop new conditions, please let DDB know.

  • You may be scheduled for a special examination by a doctor, which DDB will pay for. If so, be sure to attend this examination.  DDB needs the findings from these examinations to determine the full extent of your condition and how it affects you.
  • Complete and return any additional forms that DDB sends to you as soon as possible. Additional information is often requested about your work or your daily activities so that DDB can better understand your condition.
