Short Term Disability Insurance

Social Security pays benefits to people who cannot work because they have a medical condition that is expected to last at least one year or result in death. Federal law requires this very strict definition of disability. While some programs give money to people with partial disability or short-term disability, Social Security does not.

Fast Facts

If an applicant is working and his earnings average more than a certain amount each month, Social Security will not consider him disabled.
A short term disability may be covered by Workman Compensation or other State agency benefit programs.
