Employers
with 10 or more eligible
employees may be eligible
to enroll in the Health
Trust’s
Long Term Disability
(LTD) plan. This is
a fully insured UnumProvident
plan, which provides
income benefits to employees
who are unable to work
for an extended period
of time due to an accident,
injury, or illness.
The
LTD program will pay
benefits after the employee
has completed a 364-day
elimination period.
This elimination period
corresponds to the 52-week
maximum benefit period
employees may be eligible
to receive benefits
under the Health Trust’s
Income Protection Plan
(IPP).
Eligible
employees may receive
an LTD benefit equal
to 60% of the employee’s
monthly earnings, to
a maximum of $6,000
per month. This benefit
may continue to age
65, or normal Social
Security retirement
age.
