Question
Can Reliance Standard reduce my benefits due to income coming from worker's compensation?
I was approved from Reliance and they paid my benefit until my worker comp case was approved and they start pay PDA check every 2 weeks by rate of my injury before the case is done. Why I do not know? They will not pay my salary only PD rating ($400). Now the reliance company stopped my check, said we do not your benefit because you get paid from another source. Funny because this is only for permanent disability arm, back, neck injury. My question how they can do that. My case is not approved and salary only my injury, lost and continue my medical. Please let me know what should I do?
Answer
Mik, I am sorry but I do not follow your question in its entirety. I am assuming that Reliance is reducing your disability benefit by the amount you are receiving from Worker’s Compensation, which is something that they would be able to do under the terms of the policy for offsets due to sources of other income. If your questions is as to something else please feel free to contact our office.
