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.

Where there are solutions, there are no problems.
Medical Fraud During COVID
I received an email from someone who shared the following information with me. Insureds should be very careful of physicians who order expensive tests in order to take advantage. I went to a hearing test this morning. I think I experienced mansplaining for the 1st time. The doctor was showing me my results on a screen compared to a normal...
Everything Including The Kitchen Sink by Linda Nee
Occasionally for the disabled, it often feels as though one has every known impairment in the ICD-10 medical billing book. Head hurts, back hurts, gastritis, arthritis, joint pain, Lyme disease, FMS, CFS, POTS, IBS, HIV, DDD, DJD, and on and on.

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...
