When you receive SSDI (Social Security Disability Insurance) or SSI (Supplemental Security Income), it can be frightening to think about employment. You may have had to work long and hard to get benefits, and don't want to risk losing them.

Luckily, both programs offer safety nets called "work incentives" that help protect your cash benefits, and the medical benefits that come with them, when you go to work.

Learn how work incentives ensure that you can keep essential benefits and come out ahead financially.
