The impact of the coronavirus outbreak on the country’s medical services has left many Canadians worried about the fate of their long term disability claims. Insurance companies will soon be faced with a tsunami of LTD claims made by individuals who are unable to work due to severe anxiety, depression and other psychological traumas inflicted by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Sivan Tumarkin, partner at Samfiru Tumarkin LLP, joins hosts Mike Stafford and Supriya Dwivedi on Global News Radio 640 Toronto to explain why insurance companies may end up denying many claims related to COVID-19.
