Do you know who to contact when you are laid off of work? When you are hurt at work? When you are too ill to work - short term - long term? Do you know the difference between State Disability and Federal Disability? If you have answered yes or no to any of these questions, read on.
Life today is complicated. Medical Insurance is complicated.
I will ask you this question again? Do you know what kind of medical insurance you have? Do you know what is covered under your insurance plan? Do you spend a fortune every month for medical coverage and do not have a clue how it will affect you until it is too late?
Well if you answer this question honestly, you will realize that you are not alone. Most people do not know what their medical coverage will cover until you are hit in the face with the reality of what your insurance coverage does not cover.
(1) When your life changes and you are laid off of work, hurt at work and became so ill you could not work what are your options?
(2) When you are laid off of work you qualify for unemployment insurance.
(3) When you are hurt at work you qualify for Workman’s Compensation.
(4) When you are ill and can not work you qualify for State Disability.
(5) When you can not return to work and have been off of work for one year or in some cases less you qualify for Federal Disability.
-When you qualify for permanent disability on a case by case basis you maybe entitled to Medicare Insurance.
The confusion between State Disability and Federal Disability is completely confusing and I am afraid there are many consumers getting lost in the red tape, medical jargon and all the complications the goverment agencies throw at you.
When your work status changes and you return to work do not assume all of your benefits have been closed. You work a year or longer and your work status may change. The (5) types of government insurance can change with each separate problem. Always call the Social Security office before you start or stop any of the above Insurance Plans.
With one phone call you will save yourself money, stress and you will receive the help you need.
