Welcome to Season 6, Episode 10 of Winning Isn't Easy. In this episode, we'll dive into Technicalities, Traps, and Missed Deadlines.
ERISA disability claims are governed by strict rules that can determine whether benefits are approved or denied. Filing deadlines, notice requirements, and appeal procedures often give insurance carriers leverage to delay or reject claims, even when a condition clearly prevents someone from working. Insurers don’t just evaluate medical evidence. They closely examine whether claimants complied with policy terms, including timely notice and proper filing of STD and LTD claims. Missing a deadline or failing to follow procedures can jeopardize benefits entirely. In this episode, we break down three key issues that frequently impact ERISA disability claims: how improper claim filing and notice failures can block benefits, how mental incapacity and delayed notice affect claim timing, and why pre-litigation attorney fees are often not covered even when a denial is wrongful.
In this episode, we'll cover the following topics:
One - If You Are on Short-Term Disability, What Notice Must You Give to Your ERISA Disability Carrier That You Want to File for Long-Term Disability Benefits?
Two - Written Notice of a Disability Claim at Issue in Provident Brain Cancer Case
Three - Does My ERISA Disability Carrier or Plan Have to Pay Pre-Litigation Attorney Fees?
Whether you're a claimant, or simply seeking valuable insights into the disability claims landscape, this episode provides essential guidance to help you succeed in your journey. Don't miss it.
