Get the buttons here!Denied Disability Benefits for Parkinson's? Lawyer Glenn Kantor Shares Crucial Advice
Unfortunately, the law has also been deemed to encompass people's employee benefits and somewhere along the way, the federal courts have interpreted the law in such a way that they've forgotten that the law was intended to protect employees.
Imagine battling Parkinson's Disease and then being told you're not 'disabled enough' to qualify for disability benefits. That's the frustrating reality for many, but lawyer Glenn Kantor is here to help. With over 20 years of experience, Kantor has been fighting for the rights of those with chronic illnesses, ensuring they get the insurance benefits they deserve.
In this episode of 'Pathways to Parkinson's Relief', he sheds light on why insurers are increasingly denying disability claims for Parkinson's patients and what you can do about it. Kantor explains that despite treating physicians diagnosing patients as too disabled to work, insurers often insist these individuals can still perform some job. He breaks down the kind of evidence and documentation needed to challenge these denials effectively.
You'll also hear about the significant role Michael J Fox has played in raising Parkinson's awareness, making it a bit easier for advocates like Kantor to fight these battles. The episode doesn't stop there; it also dives into alternative therapies for managing neurological symptoms and features insights from expert presenters at the Parkinson's Recovery Summit.
Whether you're dealing with a denied claim or looking for new ways to manage your symptoms, this episode offers a wealth of practical advice and hope.
