Welcome to Season 5, Episode 20 of Winning Isn't Easy. In this episode, we'll dive into the complicated topic of "Questions About Disability Insurance, Policies, and Claims."

What do you really need to know about disability insurance, policies, and claims – before, during, and after you file? In this episode, disability law expert Nancy L. Cavey answers key questions about how disability insurance works, what your policy actually covers, and why valid claims still get denied. We cover the essentials: Should you supplement your Short-Term Disability? What if you’re not seeing the right kind of doctor? And how can you protect your claim from the start? Nancy also answers listener questions about Long-Term Disability appeals, rare or misunderstood conditions, and how to advocate for yourself when symptoms aren’t easy to document. This isn’t just about fine print - it’s about real strategies for real people navigating a complicated system. Whether you’re in the middle of a claim, planning ahead, or just trying to understand the process, this episode is your guide to making sense of disability insurance. Let’s get started.

In this episode, we'll cover the following topics:

One - Should I Get Flex DI Insurance to Supplement My Short-Term Disability Benefits?

Two - Can a Disability Insurance Carrier Rightfully Deny a Claim if You Don’t Treat With a Specialist?

Three - Listener-Submitted Questions

Whether you're a claimant, or simply seeking valuable insights into the disability claims landscape, this episode provides essential guidance to help you succeed in your journey. Don't miss it.
