Short Term Disability Insurance benefits
Even if you have health or accident insurance, you may
still have gaps in your coverage. Unlike regular health or
accident insurance plans,
short term disability insurance pays you a monthly
benefit while you are disabled. It may also coordinate with
benefits from Social Security or Worker’s Compensation.

Have you ever considered what would happen if you couldn’t
work because of an illness or injury? Without a regular
paycheck, you and your family could find it impossible to pay
your rent, make mortgage or car payments, or even cover your
utility and food bills.
Maybe you think that this can’t happen to you. But studies
have shown that almost 1 in 3 Americans become disabled at
some point during their working years*. That’s why it may be
a good idea to have
disability insurance. If you are unable to work,
disability insurance can help replace income, help you
pay bills and protect your long-term savings.
Disabilities and
short term disability insurance
A disability can mean any illness or injury that prevents
you from working at your regular job or occupation for an
extended period of time. These injuries and illnesses can
occur on or off the job.
Short Term Disability
insurance is a supplemental insurance policy that starts
paying monthly benefits after an elimination period
(the time between your injury or illness and the start of
benefits). The amount of monthly benefits you receive
depends on several factors including whether you are totally
or partially disabled and the level of benefits you chose
when you purchased your policy. Your benefits usually
continue as long as you are under a physician’s care and are
unable to return to work (for the benefit period you chose
when you purchased your policy).
Do you need
short term disability insurance?
You may not need
short term disability insurance if you have the
financial resources to cover your bills over a 6 month
period of unemployment. On the other hand, you should
consider purchasing this coverage if:
- You don’t have emergency savings to see you through
several weeks or months without a paycheck.
- Your savings is earmarked for long-term financial goals.
- You have large debts—such as a mortgage, auto loans or
credit card balances that require you to make regular
payments.
- You are your family’s sole wage earner.
- Your health or other insurance policies have high
deductibles or require out-of-pocket payments.
Getting
short term disability coverage
Your employer may offer
short term disability insurance as part of your benefits
package. Or it may offer you optional disability insurance
if you want to make the premium payments yourself.
If you can’t get
short term disability insurance through work, talk to your
insurance agent. Your agent can help you decide if you need this
kind of coverage and if you and your family are adequately
covered for the many unexpected events in life. |
