Pregnancy and Maternity Leave

Short Term Disability Insurance: Pregnancy, Maternity LeaveMany growing families are struggling to make ends meet - before losing mom's income, and then adding an extra mouth to feed.  And there is always that doubt in the back of your mind: what if something happens?

Short Term Disability Insurance for pregnancy and maternity leave can relieve some of your stress. 

  • Create maternity leave income
  • Spend more time bonding with your baby
  • Worry less about paying your bills

If you are planning a pregnancy, you have a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to buy income protection to cover a planned event: your normal maternity labor and delivery!  

Short Term Disability Insurance pays a six week benefit for your vaginal delivery, and an eight week benefit for your c-section birth.  Your maternity leave benefit may greatly exceed the premium you pay. 

At no additional cost, you are also covered in case of:

  • Pregnancy complications
  • Delivery complications
  • Premature birth
  • Accidents
  • Illnesses 
Pregnancy and maternity leave benefits are payable only when coverage begins before conception.  Don't delay!

If your are already pregnant and need insurance there are options to get coverage and lower your costs.
