I ask because one of my doctors took three months to send me a copy of four visits and totally ignored my other request for copies of my medical reports for a three month period. I'm hoping requests from SSA have more pull than I do with this doctor...

My doctor really dragged his feet when it came to submitting my medical records. I kept on getting these threatening letters from SSA stating that a decision will be made shortly based on the info they already have if my doc does not get the records in asap. However the person assigned to my case was patient and understood that there was very little I could do to speed things up. Finally my doc sent my records and all the other crap that was needed to prove my case and I was awarded SSDI.
