Q & A
If I go back to work, will I automatically lose my Social Security disability benefits?
Answer: No, Social Security has several work incentive programs to help people who want to work. You may be able to receive monthly benefits and continue your health care coverage during a trial work period. For information about Social Security’s work incentives and how they can help you return to work, you should: visit our special work site at www.socialsecurity.gov/work; see the Red Book on work incentives atwww.socialsecurity.gov/redbook; or check out our publications atwww.socialsecurity.gov/pubs and type “work” in the search.
