here's another factor in the case: if they say improved - are they stating that she can work if so where? if so, are they planning to retrain? problem is that the disability insurance is based on the ability to complete the job she was doing or starting. the insurance has to get a medical statement that states she can continue the work she was doing prior to the disability. if not, the company could save themselves money (not the insurance company) by offering her a job, where she can continue to work for the company. all companies want to make a profit. its just a matter of where do we draw the line. there are many folks i believe that live on disability but yet can be retrained to work and be beneficial to society. many of those folks would rather sit for free money for the gov't. this is a great way for them to earn and give back to the community. this would help the economy. now there are those who are not able to work anymore, but there are many who can.
