Is being pregnant considered short term disability and entitled to a medical leave of absence?

Being pregnant by itself does not constitute a disability. If you suffer from one or more complications of pregnancy and your doctor orders you to stay home from work, then short term disability will cover that disability. If your occupation has many physical demands, and your healthy pregnancy prevents you from performing your job duties, then short term disability may pay a benefit. Check your policy for specific language.

You have to check your disability policy.If you have a private short term disability policy, there will be language specifying when benefits are paid if you were not working prior to the disabling event.Filing a claim is the best way to find out. All they can do is deny the claim. If the benefit is paid, you made a tidy sum for a few hours of paperwork.


Can you get short term disability while on bed rest for pregnancy in Illinois?

No. Pregnancy is normally covered as any other disability, if the short term policy is taken BEFORE you are pregnant. If you are currently pregnant and get a new short term or long term disability policy, the current pregnancy will be excluded. If you have complications of pregnancy, and get a new policy, the future pregnancies may also be excluded. It's best to get coverage for short term disability and/or long term disability while you're healthy (and young) since the premiums would be much lower, and you'll have the protection for when you'll need it most. If you're already disabled or sick it's too late to get coverage for that specific disability, but you can still cover other injuries or illnesses. Talk to a good agent who can help you through this process.
