Why Disability Claims Get Denied By Insurance Companies
When you have been injured or are dealing with a disability the most frustrating thing to hear from your insurance company is that you don’t qualify for disability benefits, or that they have been denied for some reason. Insurance companies don’t want to pay, so there are many reasons that they will use to deny your claim. Some of the most common reasons include:
Insufficient Medical Evidence – If you have not provided enough documentation related to your disorder or injury, or if there are discrepancies with the medical documentation, insurance companies will use this lack of proof to deny your disability benefits.
Failure to Meet Policy Requirements – Each company’s insurance policy will have its own unique terms of what qualifies to be covered by their benefits. If you do not meet the criteria laid out or if you do not meet the policy’s definition of being unable to perform your job you could face a denial.
Non-Compliance With Treatment Plans – If you regularly skip medical appointments, refuse to follow the treatment care plans laid out by your medical professionals, or decline prescriptions or treatments, you could face a denial of your benefits for non-compliance.
Pre-Existing Condition Claims – Your insurance company may try to argue that your injury or disorder is related to a pre-existing medical condition and as such you do not qualify for disability benefits.
Errors or Omissions on Your Claim Form – Disability benefit claim forms can be very confusing and require great care when being filled out. Any small error or area left unfilled in will be grounds for your insurance company to deny your claim. It’s always best to speak with a disability lawyer near you when filling out these forms because of this, they can help reduce the risk of errors, fill out all necessary areas of the forms, and make sure you don’t miss any important deadlines.
What Can You Expect from the HIMPRO Disability Team In Oshawa?
When it comes to a disability claim, many people see their claims denied initially with some not pursuing the claim further – thinking that the insurance company has had the final say. While you are given the opportunity to appeal – this is usually another attempt by the Insurance to delay payments of benefits further.
At this point, if you haven’t done so already, it is crucial that you contact an experienced ltd disability lawyer to review your claim and determine the next course of action to maximize your chances of having your disability benefits approved. Our HIMPRO Personal Injury and Long-Term Disability Lawyers know how to work with insurers and reverse their denials in order for you to get the disability benefit payments you are entitled to.
