The Social Security Administration (SSA) has announced the addition of 14 new health conditions to its Compassionate Allowances (CAL) list, a program designed to fast-track disability claims for individuals with severe medical conditions. The new additions include rare cancers such as primary cardiac sarcoma and Hepatosplenic T-cell lymphoma, as well as genetic disorders like Beare-Stevenson cutis gyrata syndrome and Baraitser-Winter syndrome. With these updates, the CAL now covers 314 illnesses, expanding access to accelerated processing for applicants with life-changing diagnoses.
