Long-Term Disability Insurance Claims in Toronto

Long-term disability (LTD) insurance is intended to provide replacement income for those who are disabled from work. Yet, in Toronto, the largest city in Canada, with a population of 2.79 million people (5.5 million in the Greater Toronto Area), the number of claimants who have been denied payment of their LTD claims is astounding. Eight percent of Canada’s population lives in Toronto, which is home to 30 percent of all recent immigrants to Canada. Denial of LTD claims may therefore be affecting some of the newest members of our society, who often know very little about their legal rights.

At the same time as many LTD claimants are denied LTD claims from the outset, there are many claimants whose benefits were accepted, but then were terminated early by the insurance company. If your LTD benefits are terminated, it is important to read the letter from the insurance company carefully to ascertain the reason given for the termination. It is possible that certain forms were not provided and you may still be able to provide that information with a reason for the delay in providing the information. If the insurance company requires that you provide “œobjective evidence” of disability, you should look to see where this is stated in the insurance policy to ensure that the policy contains this requirement.
