What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? California
On June 13, I suffered appendicitis like pain in my right lower abdomen. I went to the hospital the next day. They took a number of tests, and the doctor told me my kidneys were in bad shape. They discovered three kidney stones, the largest of which was 7mm. There was talk of admitting me, but they ended up letting me go.
I was admitted to the hospital Saturday, June 18, and part of the 19th. I was put on an IV, and they took all kinds of tests.
EDD questioned the time I was out, indicating in their letter that I might be required to supply a sign-off from the doctor. When they called today, they didn't mentioned needing a doctor's confirmation of time in the hospital. They told me I'd hear in ten days if I was still eligible for unemployment benefits.
I need to talk to another hospital which handles people without insurance and get a reference for a suitable doctor to remove the kidney stones, then the operation will have to take place.
How is this going to effect my benefits with EDD? Are they likely to postpone them while they question the time that I won't be available to job hunt during the operation? I'm now worried about being sick because reporting it may cause delays and investigations. I have plenty of proof that I was at the hospital.
