Q: REASSESMENT FOR CONDITION: Should I be seen by my MD for reassessment of the condition to avoid potential problems from my ERISA insurer? If so, how do I approach my doctor?
A: Yes, the insurance company will periodically request medical records from your doctor so it is appropriate for you to approach your doctor for a reassessment of your condition. Generally the direct approach is the appropriate approach. Tell your doctor that you are still on claim and that you would like to be reassessed for disability purposes. Understand, however, that your condition may have improved (that's good news) and thus this reassessment may lead to a termination of benefits.

Testimonials
- Congratulations on having been selected by your peers for inclusion in the 2011 edition of The Best Lawyers in America®
- This is our first experience meeting with a lawyer. Surprisingly, our meeting with Ben went so well. It was very informative and educational.
- We were deeply touched by your kindness.
- I contacted Attorney Ben Glass's office and franticly spoke to his assistant Terry. We had a little more than two weeks to challenge my LTD provider's threat to offset my LTD disability payments by the amount of a recent settlement I had received on a Worker's Compensation claim - the claim was settled outside of the Worker's Compensation system.
- I want to thank you and your staff for all your hard work in 2009. I greatly appreciate your efforts on my wife's disability appeal. Your staff worked hard, is very talented and your ethical approach was readily apparent.
