I put in for a leave of absence this year. Super easy to get processed though the company. No reason given or asked for. Now insurance if you want to claim for a STD will ask you for all kinds of records from your doctor. However I don’t think that info got back to my company. Bottom line. No issues.

I hope not! I know that external providers would need a note from your doctor to approve short term disability. Anyone on here know??

Well technically if you’re going on any type of leave, you need to have a doctor give you a note for that. You should ask your doctor that question, because they will know. I believe the process is that you’d have to at least have someone at your company in HR know.

How much would a 30 day supply of Vyvanse (30mg) cost me after insurance? I know this is going to vary by plan but I'm still curious as to know how expensive of a medication this is.

My pharmacy informed me that the insurance will not cover without authorization from the psych. My psych was wary about this & instead suggested Ritalin during my session. He mentioned that insurance companies want us to first try Ritalin because they are generally cheaper. How much truth is there to this? Thanks!

Hello, does anyone work as an auto underwriter for insurance? I recently got accepted for an internal job position and was offered $50k.
