Medical Conditions and disability Claims

It is stressful to deal with the effects of medical conditions that impede your ability to complete day-to-day tasks, including at the workplace. Some medical conditions will affect cognition, cause constant pain, affect motor skills, and lead to fatigue, impacting the ability to work effectively.

We recommend that you keep all medical records of your attempts to manage the condition for purposes of submitting a claim for long-term disability in the future.

Most insurance policies contain strict guidelines regarding the provision of medical information and showing attempts to seek treatment. Additionally, they provide precise timing for your claim, phrasing guidelines, and obligations placed on the claimant. Having the necessary medical records and meeting all guidelines works towards getting approval for a denied or terminated claim. Always work with an experienced disability lawyer for professional guidance in handling a disputed long-term disability benefits claim.
