Private Disability Appeals ∙ Social Security Disability Appeals
As professionals progress through life, there may come a time when performing the same specialty work functions becomes impossible. Many doctors, surgeons and other medical professionals elect to purchase a private disability insurance policy to provide income to their family should this ever occur. Unfortunately, the process for obtaining benefits can be bureaucratic and frustrating, resulting in many professionals giving up after receiving benefit denials.

The Employment Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) governs private disability insurance coverage and procedures for determining benefit eligibility. In order to succeed in federal court appeals, it is essential to have an experienced attorney with knowledge in this complex body of law. Mr. Carfora is a board certified health law attorney with comprehensive knowledge and experience guiding professionals through disability appeals.
Under ERISA, professionals who have become partially or fully disabled and are no longer capable of performing the same medical specialty, may retire and begin collecting disability benefits under a purchased private policy. (Whereas non-specialty workers must prove they are permanently disabled and incapable of returning to ANY profession before recovering SSD benefits)
As an experienced health care law attorney, Mr. Carfora assists surgeons, nurse practitioners and other health care specialists prove the extent of their disability in order to succeed in private disability appeals. The law firm works diligently to provide the insurer with adequate documentation supporting the disability and how that disability renders the individual incapable of returning to the same vocational specialty. Mr. Carfora provides sophisticated legal representation and advice through court sponsored mediation and through trial.
