    Short-term Disability does work if you have a qualifying disability. When you are applying for short or long-term disability, you need to look at the definition of disability and occupation. Not all companies have the same definition. If the definition is vague, you may find yourself being denied on your claim or receiving a “lesser” amount then what you have applied for.

    Yes, short term disability insurance works. It will pay you a portion of your normal income while you are laid off for weeks or months due to illness, injury or childbirth (most short term disabilities do not last over a year, but some policies will pay up to two years, if they do).
