California state disability insurance is covered through two benefits: Disability Insurance (DI) and Paid Family Leave (PFL).

Link to EDD: http://www.edd.ca.gov/Disability/ The Partnership for Women's Health has worked hard to provide our patients with quality healthcare in a caring and professional manner. During that time, we have always provided administrative services for our patients at no additional cost. Despite the increasing amount of administrative work and costs that third party payer systems have created, we have resisted passing along these costs to our patients. Unfortunately, increasing expenses within the world or health care make it difficult for us to continue to simply absorb these losses. It is important to understand that these forms have become increasingly more complex and occupy a fair amount of time of both employees and medical providers as well as incur the cost associated with copying. In most cases, the medical record needs to be obtained and carefully reviewed before the appropriate disability information can be captured. The form then needs to be completed accurately, copied, signed and returned to the chart. Our fees are designed to offset the labor costs associated with this process and continue to provide this valuable convenience to our patients. We believe that by implementing these changes we will ultimately be better able to serve the needs of our patients by focusing and investing our finances and efforts specifically on patient related health care services. |
