Can you collect a disability check and hide it from new employer?
It's difficult to tell what you're really asking in this question.
Scenario 1
If you're currently receiving disability benefits and working without violating a private insurance policy's rules or government regulations, then you're not required to reveal your disability status and there is no real way for the employer to access your medical records.
If you apply for health insurance benefits through this employer, you would probably have to reveal pre-existing conditions to the insurance carrier. This information should not have to include your disability status.
Scenario 2
If you want to file a disability claim against a private insurance policy purchased through your new employer, there's no way you can hide it because the insurance company will need to verify certain qualifying information with the Human Resources department. You will also be bound by the contract you signed with the insurance company, which may include a provision against working and drawing disability at the same time.
Scenario 3
If you receive a monthly Social Security Disability (SSDI) or Supplemental Security Income (SSI) check, and you engage in Substantial Gainful Activity (SGA) by earning more than $1,000 per month ($1,640, if blind), and you are terminated from disability, your employer may find out if the government garnishes your paycheck for overpayment of benefits.
Can a person stay on Social Security Disability for life?

At at point, Social Security is triggered (as distinct from SSDI), which may be a different monthly payment than had been received as SSDI.
Additionally, if the recipient qualifies for SSDI and has minor children, the child(ren) may be entitled to benefits until the age of 18, or 19 if he/she remains a full-time student.
