LONG-TERM DISABILITY CLAIM FILE REVIEW

The administrative record closes at 180 days. Build it before that window shuts.

Long-term disability claim file review means reading everything the plan produced — the claim file, peer reviews, surveillance, FCEs, vocational reports — often 500 to 5,000 pages, and building a cited chronology with a point-by-point response to every piece of evidence before the administrative record closes.

The status quo

Full-and-fair review under the 2018 amendments to 29 CFR §2560.503-1 requires the plan to address every piece of evidence in the file, and the administrative record closes long before anyone has finished reading it. What isn't in the record by then, a federal judge will never see.

How it works

Three steps between intake and an appeal filed inside the window.

01

Upload the claim file, peer reviews, surveillance, FCEs, vocational reports

Everything the plan produced — 500 to 5,000 pages, whatever format it arrives in.

02

The AI builds a cited chronology and flags unaddressed evidence

Every document placed on one dated timeline; anything the denial letter didn't address is flagged, cited to the page.

03

Draft the appeal response before the record closes

Verify any entry with a click, then use the cited chronology to build the point-by-point response the 2018 amendments require, before day 180.

Organizes the record. Never decides the claim.

It builds the record. The appeal is yours to argue.

Every entry in the cited chronology carries its source page, so when the plan failed to address a piece of evidence, you can point to exactly where and when it entered the file.

What it never does is determine disability status, predict how a federal judge will rule, or sign the appeal. It organizes and cites the administrative record — the argument, and the decision to file, stay with you.

FAQ

Long-term disability claim file review, answered.

No. Medrecords AI organizes and cites the claim file, peer reviews, and other evidence — it never determines disability status or predicts how an appeal will be decided. That determination belongs to the plan administrator, and ultimately a federal judge.

No. Medrecords AI does not retrieve claim files from the plan or insurer. You bring the claim file, peer reviews, surveillance, and other records you already have — review starts in minutes from upload.

Yes. Every document is read and cited, so any piece of evidence the plan's denial letter didn't address is flagged. That's the point of citing everything, and it's what the 2018 amendments to 29 CFR §2560.503-1 require the plan to do.

A flat 10¢ a page, duplicate pages free. A 5,000-page administrative record is priced the same way as a 500-page one: by the page, with every line cited.

Yes. Any document in the claim file — peer reviews, surveillance reports, FCEs, vocational reports — is read, indexed, and included in the cited chronology.

This lane covers four case types. ERISA / long-term disability claim file review is reviewed against 29 CFR §2560.503-1's full-and-fair-review standard, in federal court on the administrative record. See the ERISA/LTD case-type page →

The lane also covers long-term care insurance eligibility and recertification under the "chronically ill individual" definition at IRC §7702B(c), state-mandated external appeals reviewed by independent review organizations under 45 CFR 147.136, and escalated FMLA/ADA accommodation medical certification review — second and third opinions, intermittent-leave patterns, and interactive-process documentation.
