Long Term Disability Insurance Lawyer Blog
SMDA recently convinced Cigna (Life Insurance Company of North America) to overturn a claims denial decision for an individual who is suffering from significant cognitive deficits as the result of some as yet undiagnosed condition.
SMDA prepared a comprehensive administrative appeal of the claims denial decision including neuropsychiatric testing which demonstrated significant deficits in various cognitive domains which clearly preclude the insured/client from performing the duties of his own (or frankly any occupation).
We applaud Cigna for making the right decision on this claim and reinstating our clients Long Term Disability benefits.
