The Info Library is a resource for people who have questions about disability insurance benefits, insurance companies, medical conditions, occupational demands, claims, appeals, and litigation.
Think of it as a practical guide to disability claims. Our goal is to explain common issues in clear, useful terms so you can better understand the process, the risks, and the decisions that may affect your benefits.
New articles are added regularly.

Your long term disability benefits have been approved. Now what? Unfortunately, an approval of benefits by disability insurance companies does not guarantee continued benefit payments. The insurer will periodically monitor your claim to ensure you continue to satisfy the definition of disability under the terms of the policy. During this time period, the disability insurance company will request and review updated information regarding your claim.
