Read Time:1 Minute, 53 Second

As a seasoned insurance consultant, I understand the frustration and confusion when facing denials of long-term disability (LTD) claims. Unraveling the intricacies of Sun Life’s denial strategies is crucial for securing the benefits you rightfully deserve.

Reasons for Denials:

Sun Life’s denial letters often obscure the real reasons behind rejected claims. They may challenge your disability status, employ surveillance tactics, or claim insufficiency in your medical evidence.

Challenges Faced:

One common hurdle is the assessment by Sun Life’s medical consultants, who may cast doubt on your disability without ever meeting you. This biased evaluation often becomes a pivotal point in claim rejections.

Surveillance Tactics:

Sun Life’s use of surveillance, from social media monitoring to physical observation, aims to find any discrepancy to invalidate your claim. Even a semblance of inconsistency can be wielded against your eligibility.

Medical Evidence Insufficiency:

Submitting medical records isn’t always enough. Sun Life might dismiss claims due to perceived inadequacy in supporting documentation. Hence, maximizing comprehensive evidence is paramount.

Appealing a Denial:

Upon receiving a denial, promptly obtaining your claim file and assembling robust evidence for appeal becomes imperative. Consulting a legal expert can significantly strengthen your case during this crucial phase.

Appeal Strategies:

Enhance your appeal by acquiring additional medical evidence, consulting vocational specialists, gathering witness statements, and meeting strict deadlines. These measures amplify the strength of your appeal.

Professional Assistance:

While appealing independently is possible, the intricacies of ERISA demand legal expertise. Engaging an experienced attorney significantly elevates your chances of a successful appeal.
