My wife worked for a major insurance company for several years. She was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis while employed there. At the time she was so sick that she did not have the energy to fight for LTD after being denied a few times. She never returned to work.
Two years ago, she was finally approved for Social Security Disabilty benefits after being denied a few times. It took a letter to a US Senator to get her approved. The only reason I added that is for those of you getting denied it may help your case to write your Senator.
I feel the Insurance company operated in bad faith. They had nothing to lose by denying her LTD request since they are self insured. What are her options with this? Does having SSD negate any LTD possibilities? What are the statute of limitations on this if she can pursue legal action? Any assistance you can offer would be appreciated.
She was employed in Denver when this took place.
