8:30 - Do You Have To Apply For A Government Disability Program As Well As Through Your Private Insurance?
“My long-term disability insurer has asked me to apply for the government disability program. Do I have to do this? If I do apply, and I’m denied, will this impact my LTD benefits?”

MAIN TOPIC – Returning To Work After Disability Leave: Know Your Rights
15:54 - 1️⃣ If your doctor says you’re not ready, your LTD provider cannot demand you return to work prematurely.
19:20 - 2️⃣ Disability benefits can resume if a return to work is unsuccessful due to a “recurrence” clause.
21:25 - 3️⃣ If your insurer cuts off your LTD benefits after a failed return, you can seek legal action.

23:42 - Insurance Company Trying To Discourage You To Apply For LTD?
“My brother was given short-term disability, although it was a struggle, and the insurer was not happy about it. Now insurance is telling him not to bother applying for long-term disability because he’ll never be approved for it. He just wants to give up.

26:23 - Insurance Company Saying You Don't Have Enough "Proof"?
I was put on long-term disability leave due significant chronic pain. My doctor and physiotherapist have requested I be off work as I work in a physically demanding job. After submitting forms to the insurance company, they denied my claim, saying I need more proof. I don’t understand what other forms of documentation or “proof” I can provide. What can I do?
