[CANADA] Would you pay for this service?
Without getting deeply into it, would you, or do you know of anyone who'd pay an independent consultant to review their denied STD/LTD claims?
Essentially, I've spent +10yrs adjudicating disability claims from the insurers side, and now id like to use that knowledge to help claimants UNDERSTAND & RESPOND to denied or terminated disability claims.
Im not a lawyer, so "legal advice" cannot be provided. My services would consist of- interpreting the denial to the claimant, reviewing policies, reviewing the denial against medical documentation, and putting a plan together for the claimant to appeal the decision.
This idea literally was just a thought in the back of my mind for many years but I haven't put any of it in play so I wouldnt even know what this type of service would charge...definitely not lawyer rates considering these claimants haven't been paid by the insurer.
Do you think there's a market for this and if its profitable?
Thanks for reading!
