EDD won't send doctor document request - Need advice to expedite process

I found a way to solve doctor's papers processing delay, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4boVSWSe8zg

Ugh, I feel your pain. I've been there and it's so frustrating. When you get through to an agent, make sure you have all your doctor's contact info ready. Be super clear that you need them to send the document request ASAP. Good luck!

Pro tip: I found a way to actually get someone on the phone without waiting forever. I used this site called claimyr.com. It's a calling tool that dials the phone menu, stays on hold, and then connects you when a live agent picks up. It costs $20, but it worked for me. Here's a video about it: https://youtu.be/1X-mEsLtbmQ

Here's what you need to do: 1. Gather all your medical info, including your doctor's full name, address, phone number, and fax. 2. When you get an agent, clearly state that you need them to send a document request to your doctor. 3. Ask for a confirmation number or reference for the request. 4. Follow up with your doctor to make sure they received the request. 5. If you don't hear back within a week, call EDD again. Stay persistent and document everything. Good luck!

am i the only 1 who thinks its ridiculous we gotta jump thru all these hoops just to get basic stuff done? 🤡 edd needs to get there act together fr

Have you tried faxing the request directly to your doctor's office? Sometimes that can speed things up. Just make sure to follow up with EDD to confirm they'll accept it that way.

Honestly, at this point, I'm convinced carrier pigeons would be more efficient than the EDD's system 🐦📬 Maybe we should suggest that for their next upgrade lol
