STD Claims Adjudication

What is a short term disability claim?

Occasionally, an employee will need a medical absence from work due to a non-work related injury or illness. During this absence, the employee can be entitled to receive a form of disability payment.

The key to short-term disability claims is that the adjudication can be done either by an insurance company or within the company itself. Self-adjudication involves the employer themselves making the decisions about the validity of the claim, entitlement and benefits being approved or denied, etc. It is often a very time consuming and complex process that can often be more effectively managed by an objective third party.
