Best Answer

Temporary disability benefits are also referred to as short term disability insurance. The primary characteristic is the limited duration of the benefit period - typically no more than two years. Long term disability pays a benefit from 5 years up to age 65.

The term temporary disability is most commonly associated with state short term disability programs available in NJ, NY, RI, CA, and HI.
