Vestibular Dysfunction Disability Claims Attorneys Representing Policyholders Throughout the U.S.

At Disability Insurance Law Group, our nationwide attorneys know vestibular dysfunction is a disturbance of the body’s balance system that can impact the lives of those with the condition differently.

Symptoms include:

  • Intolerance to head motion.
  • Nausea and vomiting.
  • Postural instability.
  • Spontaneous nystagmus.
  • Unsteady gait.
  • Vertigo.

The prevalence of each symptom varies, and there is no single symptom that is specifically characteristic or indicative of vestibular dysfunction.

Some commonly diagnosed vestibular disorders include:

  • Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV).
  • Labyrinthitis.
  • Ménière’s disease.
  • Vestibular neuritis.

Determinations of impairment due to vestibular dysfunction are often made by healthcare professionals, including otolaryngologists — ear, nose, and throat specialists — neurologists, and physical therapists specializing in vestibular rehabilitation.

Treatment options for vestibular dysfunction may include medications, physical therapy for vestibular rehabilitation, lifestyle modifications, and balance training that can take an extended time, requiring long work absences. This is when someone living with vestibular dysfunction’s disability insurance can change the trajectory of their livelihood and overall quality of life.

When a disability insurance claim is denied, it can physically, emotionally, and financially devastate vestibular dysfunction sufferers. We want to help.

When is Vestibular Dysfunction Considered an Impairment?

The vestibular system in the inner ear plays a crucial role in balance and spatial orientation. Dysfunction of the vestibular system can lead to symptoms such as vertigo, dizziness, imbalance, and spatial disorientation.

Vestibular dysfunction is considered an impairment when it significantly interferes with an individual’s ability to carry out daily activities, maintain employment, and engage in social interactions.

Here are some considerations for when vestibular dysfunction may be considered an impairment:

  • Functional Impairment

If vestibular dysfunction significantly impairs a person’s ability to perform basic activities of daily living (ADLs), such as walking, standing, and maintaining balance, it may be considered an impairment.

  • Occupational Implications

Vestibular dysfunction can impact a person’s ability to work. Jobs that require coordination, balance, and spatial awareness may be particularly affected. The impact on job performance, attendance, and the ability to carry out essential job functions is a crucial consideration.

  • Safety Concerns

Vestibular dysfunction can pose safety concerns for the affected individual. If there is an increased risk of falls or accidents due to impaired balance and spatial orientation, it may contribute to the severity of impairment.

  • Cognitive and Emotional Impact

Vestibular dysfunction can have cognitive and emotional consequences. Persistent symptoms such as vertigo or dizziness may contribute to anxiety, fear, and overall impairment.

  • Duration and Frequency

The duration and frequency of vestibular dysfunction symptoms are essential considerations. Chronic or frequent symptoms that persist over time and significantly impair overall functioning may be viewed as impairments.

  • Response to Treatment

The effectiveness of treatment in managing vestibular dysfunction is considered. If symptoms persist despite medical interventions, it may contribute to the severity of impairment and require sufferers to pursue their disability insurance policy for help. If this is true for you, we can help.

Whether your disability insurance coverage was underwritten as a private or employer-provided policy, we have over 50 years of combined experience pursuing all insurance coverages and corporations for the benefits policyholders nationwide deserve.
