Guest guest Posted March 23, 1999 Report Share Posted March 23, 1999 hi everybody, here's a question for you all: my employment is with the county of los angeles. i didn't realize that i had no disability due to the fact they do not take social security out of my check. it's funny because i've been asking around there and everyone thinks they have disability until i make them aware. i bought disability insurance privately within the last couple months. i was told i will not be covered for this surgery because it's considered a pre-existing condition prior to my enrollement. so here i am surgery in seven days, and no financial help. i've been so sick this year that i have already exhausted all my sick time and vaction time. so basically they go into reserve which means i will get 50% of my pay, which is ridiculous to think i can live off this. i am a court reporter and make a nice living but alot of it is based on extra income from my transcripts produce of which there will be zero during this time. does anyone know of any other resources to contact. i feel like there's got to be something else besides disability???? all info. is appreciated. thanks wendy ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
