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.

A Wonderful Testimonial From A Client
I have been Linda Nee’s client for over 15 yrs. During those years, she has fought two denial claims [this is when I was permitted to do appeals] and was the one responsible for me getting the denials overturned. She has been there from day one and is the only reason I am receiving disability benefits. It was a very scary, anxiety ridden time for...
Don’t Sweat The Templates – It’s All Buzz
Lately, I’ve noticed that I’m getting quite a few questions concerning the nuisance multi-page letters claimants and insureds are receiving. While they can be pretty scary, most of the letter is just BUZZ. Due to the fact that nearly all insurers “regurgitate” or cite multiple Plan or policy provisions in their letters,...

Within the last week I received several calls from claimants complaining that Unum is requesting the same information over and over again. Insureds are...

Out of over 1.2 million readers of the blog to date, I would estimate that less than half made the decision to follow that advice.

The Two “R’s” That Should Never Be Mentioned With Disability Claims
Because of the current situation we find ourselves in with COVID many insureds are making the decision to either “retire” or “resign” from their jobs from the very beginning of medical impairment. Disability insurance companies are very, well, let’s say “sensitive”, to claims when insureds mention...
Unum Pushes GENEX Sign-On – Just Say “No”
According to recent information Unum is once again pushing its SSDI third party vendor, GENEX, so that it can benefit from exchanges of SSDI information without coaxing claimants to sign separate Authorizations to obtain SSDI files. Of course, GENEX is sold by Unum as a “free benefit” available to “assist you with the...
