bryantcj 13 Posted December 21, 2012 I was wondering if the time off for the post op recovery period was paid by short term disability or not. Obviously this is an elective surgery but I wasn't sure how that worked. It probably just depends on your company? Anyone able to share? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
melaniem 2 Posted December 21, 2012 Once my insurance approved the surgery, my post op time off was covered by short term disability. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SeriouslyChange 319 Posted December 22, 2012 Did you have to apply for disability? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lisa :) 231 Posted December 22, 2012 I'm in CA and took a month off and got disability. I received the maximum weekly amount which was nowhere near my salary but at least it was something!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
