Return-to-Work Toolkit: Healthcare Information for Employees
It is not uncommon for people with disabilities and/or health conditions to choose not to return to work due to the fear of losing healthcare benefits. This may be especially true for those receiving Social Security Disability benefits because sometimes their earnings can influence their eligibility for medical coverage. However, the Ticket to Work Program and other work incentives from the Social Security Administration (SSA) can help people return to work while continuing to protect their benefits. The following resources can help provide information about options:
- Ticket to Work Program Website
- Working While Disabled
- The Red Book — A Guide to Work Incentives
- Disability.gov: Health Care
