I find it very disturbing that people would try to take money from those who really need it. I am glad that these individuals are being tried - I just hope that the law does what is right and just.

It's incredible that these companies will take your money for years and years and then when you become disabled and need the money the most, they find a reason to deny your claim.

i was out of work for three weeks. i was ready to go back to work in two weeks. but at the end of the second week, i still was not able to walk or put pressure on my foot (hammer toe correction), i was in so much pain still. the doctors office extented my leave for one week. found at the end of that week that there were undesolved stitches embedded in my toe. unum denied my payment for that last week. hard as times are and my mortgage being due, these folks thought i was just going to allow this. they rejected my doctors note and went steadfast on my last doctors visit stating i was doing better. but not still being able to put my foot in a shoe and being in so much pain and then finding those stitches, was not know at that visit. i wrote them a letter where i was not playing with them. sometime letters just have to have common sense. i had my doctor himself (cheif of the foot and ankle department) write a letter. they reverse my claim and paid me. i blame the companies that we work for. they go for these companies that they know that have a history of deniening claims. everyone was suprise my claim was reverse, even the customer service rep. at unum. i do hope that they get what they get.

Monopoly restrictive trade practices will not work-out always, corporate companies should stop dominating the Markets through their Mergers and Acquisitions.

Even though I worked for a company whom mangaed accounts for insurance claims, medical and other resources. When we were stating our Hippa protocols, no one believed that our medical information was prototected.
These company's would order prescription history's. In less then minutes they would receive both the prescription history but also what that medication could be used for...
So if a person medication history showed that a medication may be used for depression, bingo. How would most people know that a medicine, taken may or may be used for depression, would have there benefits terminated.
So our doctors need to write down what that med is being used for...there is no shame to be depressed nor take medication, but for those who wasn't taking a med for depression that needs to in there records.
It disscusses me. I am too disabled and this insurance company tried to change my medical evidence...my doctors new me, they stood up for me, but it didn't stop there, even though I had thousands of test results, no evidence of ever being diagnoses for depression, they provided the DDS office (I was unaware of any of this) with a tiny part of medical information, so guess what? I was declared mentally ill with no test results to confirm my medical claims.
The local SSA Office called me, upset at what happened. They have provided the proof of other insurance company, but it is still hard to convince attorneys that fraud can happened (in midwest).
I lost all my disabilty income and my husband lost his job. It continues to escalate and hopefully we will find the attorney form whom understands what is happening.
