The insurance company uses a web portal for me to update my case file. This has caused a lot of difficulty in adequately communicating my ongoing situation. What can I do to ensure communication is efficient?
9:16 Denied LTD but approved for short-term disability
I worked for about 2 years and asked for accommodation and was immediately put on STD. I was denied long-term disability and given a position that I was unable to do so I was put on STD again. I was then denied LTD a second time. What should I do now?”

My wife suffered a stroke about two years ago, resulting in partial paralysis which prevented her from working.
