Ohio teachers in STRS Ohio applying for a disability allowance or disability retirement need a report from their treating medical specialist on whether they are disabled from their last position for at least 12 months. The form is not online: it comes in the Disability Application Packet that STRS Ohio mails to members on request, and the member returns it with the rest of the packet.
The member's treating medical specialist, an MD or DO other than the primary care physician, completes the whole report after personally examining the member within two months of STRS Ohio's receipt of the report. The member completes the Disability Benefit Application and the employer completes the Report by Employer.
