Benefits... Long Term & Short Term Disability

Both, the Long Term Disability (LTD) and Short Term Disability (STD) Insurance for employees of The University of Texas System continues to be insured by The Hartford Group.

If an employee does not select either of these coverages during their initial benefits eligibility period, they may only elect it during the next Annual Enrollment period. They must complete an Evidence of Insurability form.

However, the LTD program is an optional coverage which provides income protection should an employee become disabled. After the elimination period requirements have been satisfied, 60% of an employee's covered salary will be payable upon claim submission.
