My prior doctor brought up the idea of disability and filled out the state disability paperwork which got me approved. Unfortunately, I cannot afford him anymore and I now receive care from a very nice p-doc at the county. I have seen her once for the intake and will see her again in April for a 30-min appt.

I have not discussed SSDI specifically with my old doctor but I assume, since be brought it up, that he would be supportive.

I do not know anything about the new doc; she will need to know me better, I assume. I do know though that at the county clinic, they are well familiar with the disability paperwork.

My question is: can my old doctor fill out the paperwork as he saw me as recently as in Feb and he knows me well, or must the paperwork go through the new doc? If the latter, any tips on how to approach the issue with her during my next appointment?
