I am being treated by a Nurse Practitioner. Can my treating Nurse Practitioner certify my Claim for Disability Insurance (DI) Benefits?
A Nurse Practitioner can certify for all medical conditions within his/her scope of practice. However, to certify a Claim for DI Benefits for a disability other than normal pregnancy and childbirth, the nurse practitioner must certify on a DE 2509A that he/she performed a physical examination and collaborated with a physician and/or surgeon. The nurse practitioner must complete, sign and attach the Nurse Practitioner Certification, DE 2509A to the Claim for Disability Benefits, DE 2501. I received a Claim for Continued Disability Benefits form (DE 2500A). What is this and how should I complete it? The DE 2500A, commonly called a continued claim certification, is your request for continued disability benefits. By signing and dating the front of the form, you certify that during the dates shown on the continued claim certification you were still disabled. If you recovered or returned to work part- or full-time, please fill in the appropriate area on the front of the continued claim certi
