Short-term policies generally last between 9 and 52 weeks, after which time your benefit will end. You may then have the option of moving to a Long-Term Disability policy or applying for Social Security Disability Insurance. Pregnancy and maternity leave is a very common trigger for short-term disability claims.
The State of California allows maternity leave to begin 4 weeks prior to your Estimated Due Date for State Disability. Most private insurance companies allow 2 weeks prior to your due date. You may continue to work up until your due date if you are healthy and have no medical reason for stopping work. When does my disability end? The State allows 6 weeks after a vaginal delivery and 8 weeks for a C-section. Most major insurance companies allow 6 weeks disability for recovery. If you have a complication, you may qualify for an extended disability.
