I have been receiving horrible treatment from the company who handles my STD. My benefits should be weekly but I have been out since July and have only received 2 payments. They have been about 30 to 38 days apart. It's always, we need more info. I have been really on top of things and so have my treating doctors. They are very upset and advised me to get a lawyer, because they both agree they are being treated like unprofessionals and the treatment I have received will only make my condition worse. When I asked the insurance co. the reason for the delays she stated, well your company only allows 2 weeks for this disabilty. Then I asked her again this past week and she said the information my doctor provided does not support my STD claim. I spoke to my doctor who laughed and said you really need a lawyer this is very upsetting that they are behaving so unprofessionally. They have harassed me by calling me telling me they can't read my doctors notes (who can) they told my other doctor that unless he releases my medical notes they will deny my claim. This doctor said to me that this is bull and he has patient/doctor confidentiality. He will let them know that I keep scheduled appts, treatment etc. I'm so confused!! Should I get a lawyer? Oh yes, I have been harassed at my job also very long story relating to the disability. All I can say is HELP!!!
