Under most disability plans if you were on disability prior to termination the benefit continue. Most companies will not terminate you if they believe the disability is short term because they expose themselves to potential liability for wrongfull termination.

Some disability insurance policies will cover drug & alcohol as any other disability, but usually limit the benefits to maximum 24 month.

If you are determined partially disabled by a Workman's Compensation physician can you also collect disability insurance?

It would depend on your disability insurance plan. Some plans exclude work-related disabilities. If your plan excludes work-related disabilities, then you would initially be denied through your disability insurance. You should still file a claim with them however. If your Worker's Compensation claim ends up being denied though, you could then forward a copy of the denial letter to your disability insurance carrier for review of possible approval. If your plan does not exclude work-related disabilities, then you would be able to file both claims. You would just want to make sure that when filing, each carrier knew about the other. Keep in mind, the benefit you receive through Worker's Compensation will be a direct offset to the benefit provided by the disability insurance.

If someone has nystagmus can they receive disability?

If the Nystagmus condition this person has is severe enough, then yes they can qualify for Disability benefits. However it is not the simple fact of having Nystagmus that will enable them to receive Disability benefits.Disability insurance companies and Social Security disability do not look at the specific condition a claimant has, but more so the effect this condition has on the person's ability to work. Disability insurance will only pay benefits when a person is prevented from working due to an illness or injury.Therefore, if the Nystagmus prevents a person from being able to work, then depending on the Disability insurance policy they have, there is a good chance they can qualify for benefits. If the Nystagmus causes does not prevent the person from being able to work, then they will not be eligible for benefits.


How long do you have to be off of antidepressants before being approved for disability insurance?

AnswerMaybe a year, BUT there is no black and white answer to this question. It would depend on the company, which medications, why you were on them, etc. Your health is the most important thing. Do NOT let an Insurance Company dictate what your MD should be telling you. What kind of disabilty Insurance? How much? Many policies are guaranteed issue. For more info see www.steveshorr.com/disability.htmIf you want to be on disability, why is being on an antidepressant a bad thing? My disability is depression; so, I'm on antidepressants. What state do you live in? Is this for SSDI, or a state disability insurance program. Are you talking about regular medical insurance? If you are, try not to let them know you were on antidepressants at all! HMOs love rejecting you for any reason.
