If it is truly disability thatr you were approved for, be very careful about getting a part time job. Make sure the social security people know you are doing it or they can take all of your benefits away.

As for health benefits - I had to be on disability for 2 years before I qualified for medicare. Food stamps wouldn't go through the social security office, that would be through like your state/local human services department,
