Re: short term disability
It would be best to review your actual policy face-to-face with counsel. You should qualify if your Doctor will provide any additional documentation necessary. Some carriers are substandard because if there is a dispute, they think they can get pre-empted from any state claims by ERISA.
Good Luck.
