LFG has been nothing but a headache

Reviewed by Norma P. on October 17th 2017   Verified Policyholder
LFG has been nothing but a headache since I filed a claim 7/13/2017, they used a nurse to deny my claim and when I appealed it they drug it out until mid October and denied it again. I was told by my boss at work to go home and file for STD, so I did and then when LFG decided I was going on a year of personal leave I was told to quit my job because they wouldn’t hold it for me. Who do I sue, the insurance company or the employer or both?

Norma, Lincoln typically requires two levels of appeal per their policies. With respect to which party is to be sued under a STD claim we would need to see the policy itself to determine how it is funded/underwritten. Please feel free to contact our office to discuss Lincoln’s denial and how we may be able to assist you.
