Short-Term Disability Evaluation
Mental health disability claims require clear, objective documentation. This evaluation assesses how your symptoms affect your ability to perform your job.
When a diagnosis isn't enough
Insurers rarely approve a short-term disability claim on a diagnosis alone. They want documentation of how the condition affects your ability to perform your specific job and they want it on their forms, in their format, before their deadline.
This is a comprehensive psychological evaluation documenting your current diagnosis, symptom severity, and functional impairment as it relates to your work.
This is the right service if:
You've stopped working, or you're close to it
Your insurer or employer has requested clinical documentation
You've been handed carrier forms your provider can't or won't complete
A previous submission came back incomplete or was denied for insufficient documentation

Frequently Asked Questions

Check with your benefits administrator about how they handle your private health information.

-
The evaluation is objective and based on the available clinical evidence. If the findings do not support the requested leave or certification, that conclusion will be explained directly. The evaluation fee covers the comprehensive assessment and documentation process.
-
No. Short-term disability evaluations are self-pay. HSA and FSA cards are accepted. A detailed receipt or superbill is available upon request, but reimbursement is not guaranteed and depends on your health plan’s coverage.
