That is a highly unusual tactic.Unless you were notified in advance that they would only accept a lump sum payment.You need to check the consumer laws of your state.They probably, however can do it.If they take any legal action against you they may find themselves explaining their actions to a judge or trustee.Knowing your rights and standing up for them is your best defense.

Unfortunately, yes. But hopefully, it's not common. My best friend owed an animal vet $900 when her cat died in his care. When she, a single mom, tried to make payments, he refused them and didn't cash the checks because he wanted one payment in full. They ended up in court. The judge took my friends side. He totally criticized the Vet and told him he should rethink his collection policies. Legal, yes, but not a good idea.

Repayment of disability social security payments to insurance company?

To begin with I too have Long Term Disability insurance payments and SSDI payments. My policy was specific as to what would happen when SSDI kicked in. My monthly payment would be reduced by the amount of SSDI. In addition I was required to submit any "lump sum checks" issued by the Social Security Administration while my claim was being processed. Now I understand most policies work this way but until you get a copy of your policy and review it, it will be difficult to give a complete accurate answer. Hope this helps.
