Disability Forms Policy
As a small practice with limited staff, we have put the following policy in place for the filling out of disability forms. This can include short, or long-term disability, SSI, attorney forms, and FMLA forms.
The client must have been a client of this office for at least 6 months for long-term disability or SSI forms to be completed. The provider will only complete these forms if it is determined to be appropriate to do so. We are happy to provide your medical records, but we will not make the determination if you qualify for long-term disability or SSI.
A client must have completed a minimum of 3 visits for short-term or FMLA forms to be completed. The provider will only complete these forms if it is determined to be appropriate to do so. The provider is not able to guarantee that short-term disability or FMLA will be approved.
Paperwork can take up to 14 days to complete. It may be completed earlier, but it is done on a first-come-first-served basis. Please understand it is difficult to rush this process due to the limited staff available to complete these forms.
Clients must be compliant with ongoing treatment including medications and keeping appointments to have the office continue filling out disability forms.
Clients must have seen the provider within the last 30 days to submit disability paperwork.
Blank forms will not be accepted: At a minimum, the client’s name and date of birth should be filled out on the form prior to submission.
There is a charge to fill out these forms. Please see the Practice Fee Schedule for the cost to complete these forms.
