Saskatchewan health-care employees applying to a Disability Income Plan administered by 3sHealth (CUPE, General, SEIU-West and SUN plans) need this statement with their employee and employer application forms. It is the CLHIA Initial Disability Insurance Medical Statement in 3sHealth branding, and 3sHealth notes that a doctor's note alone is not sufficient to support a disability application.
A licensed physician or nurse practitioner involved in the patient's care completes Section 2; a chiropractor or registered psychologist may complete it for up to eight weeks from the disability start date. The employee completes Section 1, and the employer and employee each complete their own initial application form.

Yes, for a limited time. 3sHealth allows a chiropractor or registered psychologist to complete the statement for up to eight weeks from the disability start date. After that, a licensed physician or nurse practitioner must complete any further medical forms supporting the Disability Income Plan claim.
The employee. Under the plan, it is the applicant's responsibility to provide medical information supporting the application, and 3sHealth says this obligation was agreed by a wide group of stakeholders, including employee representatives. Once a long-term disability claim is approved, 3sHealth pays a standard fee for medical forms it requests.
No. 3sHealth states that a doctor's note is not sufficient to support an application for disability benefits. The employee must provide medical evidence that clearly shows they are totally disabled, and 3sHealth's medical consultants check that the reported diagnosis, treatment plan and prognosis fit the objective information.
