My insurer asked me to apply for CPP disability so I have. I was denied mainly because I didn't have an update from any doctor besides my family doctor since the beginning of 2021. My family doctor and myself have been trying to get an update from a specialist. However they keep rejecting the referral saying that the diagnosis has already been made and that they don't do ongoing follow-up; the nature of my condition is neurological. I have already appealed the CPP disability application and my doctor and I have been continuing to do referrals. Recently I decided to try perhaps a physiatrist versus a neurologist referral to see if that might speed things up. And I should clarify that I have been following the suggested treatment plan with the relevant therapists.
Appreciate all of your advice!
