that people who have an available diagnosis receive. For example, the average
monthy benefit for all women who have an available diagnosis is $665.20.
Other people without an available diagnosis who have disabilities and who
receive SSDI are not included in this Table.
The Social Security Administration considers a person to have a disability
if they cannot do work they did before and adjustments to other work cannot
be made due to a medical condition.
