My company has disability both short and long. The problem with the FMLA servicer (Sedgwick) is they will not accept Long Haul Covid as a diagnosis. Even Medicare accepts that diagnosis now. (New ICD-10 coding for Post COVID-19 condition, unspecified (U09. 9) Providers should list U09. 9 seconndary to specific codes for ongoing conditions after a COVID-19 infection, such as shortness of breath (R06).) Sedgwick claim examiners refuse to accept it, even though all insurance companies are accepting along with Medicare and Medicaid. It is my opinion that Sedgwick is flauting Federal guidance on this matter. I believe there should be a class action lawsuit against Sedgwick for this very definite push back that affects the adequate management of the FMLA laws.

Who is your employer..Sedgwick is terrible..I have had to deal with them in the past...said I did not return their calls , but they did not return mine. Claim examiners were terrible. I am part time so there is no short or long term disability for me.
