When your sick leave extends to the point where the insurance company gets involved, it’s important to constantly track where things are at and keep in contact with the insurance company.

“Things can slide off the rails quickly if you aren’t tracking and following-up on your claim,” said GSU staff rep Steve Torgerson. “Whether it is keeping a record of correspondence, tracking your appointments or following up with your doctor, it’s important to keep good records and stay in touch with your insurance company so you don’t put your claim in jeopardy.”
