I have been receiving disability income benefits from a major insurance company for 12 years and they are now, for the first time, sending me to an orthopedist for an evaluation. My policy has an "own-occupation clause" and that occupation was manager of the typesetting dept. at the World Headquarters of a major NYC bank. All of us who have had the major misfortune of being visited by CTS know that we cannot return to "that which gave it to us". My questions are: 1] does the medical community support this view and are they willing to commit themselves to it, esp. with an insurance co.? My symptoms have persisted throughout the years and are acutely exacerbated by certain activities and 2] do you know of any legal precedents in which the claimant w/ CTS has been victorious over their insurance co.? Thanks in advance.
