Question
Can I sue Aetna for the pain and suffering they've caused me?
Answer
Dawn, I am sorry for your loss. Unfortunately, there is no remedy against Aetna for any pain and suffering. Have they responded to your inquiries regarding the benefit? Also, I would also recommend you inquire about the “Survivor Benefit”- most policies will pay three months of benefits to a Survivor. Also, I would inquire if your mother also had a life insurance policy with Aetna (or another insurance company), as it is common an employer provided Disability and Life Insurance.
