Great question. I'm very interested in a response. We are in the same situation with my husband. He is on SSDI and we to may move. I would hope that a primary doctor would be enough. Lets hope someone chimes in soon with some info.

I did have several CDRs, and had my latest one about a year ago. It was a short-form.
I recently moved to a new state and worried about future CDRs. Is it enough to continue having a primary care doctor, like an internist, write RX for my meds? How would I go about finding a pdoc and how do you know they would support you in a CDR? Do I really need to worry about a CDR, given my age and length of time receiving SSDI, as long as I don't work even PT?
Thank you
