ROADMAPS TO CLAIM SUCCESS
Leaving work because of a medical disability can have a tremendous physical and emotional impact on anyone. In fact, making the transition from working in a chosen career field to total or partial disability is a major life event that often requires knowledge of disability contracts and investigative claims processes. Disability Claims Solutions, Inc. is here to help.
As a company, Disability Claims Solutions, Inc. provides insureds with resources to make better decisions concerning ERISA Group STD/LTD claims, as well as Individual Disability Income benefits and Long-Term Care. Having the opportunity to work with an expert consultant, such as Linda Nee, provides insureds with valuable procedural options to work through problematic issues in successful ways. Our focus is to resolve problems, not wrestle with conflict.
DCS, Inc. maintains excellent relationships with treating physicians and specialists who support patient disability. Insureds and claimants ultimately benefit from the teamwork of physicians, specialists, and employers, in combination with expert consultation and advice.

DCS Daily Buzz
Pointing to yourself Unfortunately, the disability claims process is an industry where, “it’s better if they don’t know your name.” In other words, “no news is good news”, and let’s not poke that bear. It’s far better not to frequently contact insurers because bringing attention to your name and...
Be Careful What You Say To Your Doc
Those with disability claims should always be “guarded” in conversation, particularly when speaking to treating physicians who report to insurance companies.

Happy New Year! As part of the new updates planned for DCS in 2022, I plan to update my Disability Claims Solutions website located at: http://www.disabilityclaimssolutions.com to include the library of authored articles I’ve written over the last 25 years. It is hoped the DCS website will become the central “go to” location for additional...

Claimify And SSDI File Requests
There have been so many inquires to DCS lately regarding a company called “Claimify” that I thought perhaps it would be good information to include a blog on the subject. There are so many companies out there now that are hired to be “third-party paper chasers” for insurance companies, it’s hard to keep up....
