Guest guest Posted June 7, 2005 Report Share Posted June 7, 2005 Hmm, that worries me, because there's a possibility my company's LTD policy puts a cap on benefits for mental illness at 2 years. I have been doing some research online and found that out; I have an email pending to one of our HR reps asking about that. > You may find you get re-evaluated though, if your LTD is > discontinued. > > > Regards, > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
