   Rhode Island was first, followed by California, then New Jersey, and then New York. Years later, Puerto Rico joined the ranks, and Hawaii was the last state to provide Disability Insurance. They all use slightly different methods, but all provide temporary disability benefits through the use of tax dollars.
