    Likewise anecdotal, but I also have several members who get the DTC, and two of them have to renew every 5(?) years, while another is listed as indefinite, so no renewal is needed.

    It could depend on the illness (mental or physical), and whether it’s something that one might expect to get better from.

    But my god, if you don’t have a doctor who is willing to fight for you, it’s often years of chasing them down before anything is done. I don’t blame people for getting a lawyer involved (one of my parents had to).
