ADA request stalled bc HR doesn’t like the drs paperwork

Told my doc I was making an ADA request and asked for a letter. They provided FMLA paperwork instead… but it has all the same information HR wants to see in a letter. HR says they can’t use it for an ADA request. It was the DOL form, signed and filled out by my doc. My opinion is, this is still a legal document from my healthcare provider with the same information about limitations and accommodations that HR wants composed as a letter and they should be able to use it. Is this opinion correct? If not, Does this mean the “interactive process” is void? Do I ask them if my request is denied? I don’t see my doc again for 6 weeks.
