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.

Word Press Mucking Things Up
I can only guess that the low numbers of Lindanee’s Blog views in the last several days have to do with Word Press changing to totally awful “block editor” that bloggers are finding hard to manage. I’ve found that when something works well on the Net software updates make sure it no longer does. I’ve had to remember...
Inefficiency Just Adds To More Inefficiency And Eventually “Bad Faith” and Negligence
Although lately I’ve been posting about insurance inefficiency, I may have failed to mention that hiring “paper chasing” third-parties is making matters worse. It occured to me that many of the letter interactions I’ve had from claims handlers in the last week involves chasing down Authorizations. Therefore, it appears...
Inefficiency Leads To Frustration
I thought it would be a good idea to remind readers that most insurers are now operating somewhere between totally awful and down right terrible. The only real helpers in this are the Customer Service reps, who despite looking every where for living bodies to take calls, can’t find them. I know it’s frustrating since I’m jumping...
Mutual Of Omaha’s 30 Day Pay No Mind List
More and more disability cases have been surfacing from Mutual of Omaha, which upon inspection are “bungled” in very untimley ways. I’m not sure whether it’s because of COVID or whether total disorganization is a way of life for this insurance company. I recently contacted a claims handler who had difficulty finding the...
Unum – “How About Them Rotten Apples?”
Most of you know I still have access to information inside Unum that is reported to me several times a year. While it’s never good news, it is news. Recently, I wrote a blog about a large group of (4,306 STD checks to be exact) that were not sent out. A Unum hush-hush of sorts took place and supposedly it was communicated to employees they...
Unum – Leaked Information For STD Claimants
Reliable sources informed me this morning that Unum STD checks scheduled for 9/12 release apparently just disappeared. Unum employees have been advised not to tell claimants multiple claims are effected and that checks are being reprinted and mailed on 9/28 and 9/29. It is presumed by those inside Unum that since “stop payment” was...
