Disability Insurer Properly Terminated Benefits, Federal Judge Determines

PHILADELPHIA - A Pennsylvania federal judge on Aug. 23 determined that a disability insurer's termination of long-term disability (LTD) benefits was proper because the claimant failed to prove that she was disabled under the plan's any-occupation standard and because the claimant collected the maximum amount of available benefits available under the plan's mental health limitation (Kristy M. Keller-Smith v. Reliance Standard Life Insurance Co., No. 17-1549, E.D. Pa., 2018 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 144425).
