Disability insurance short term : My fiance (we live in Michigan) just gave birth to our son after being on STD for the last 6 months. It's kind of a unique situation, where she went on disability 3 or 4 days before a change of ownership of the company she worked for due to serious health issues. Is the new owner required to take her back in an equal capacity (she's fine now)? Also, the new owner did not offer health insurance when he took ownership, but rather reimbursed ALL 10 employees COBRA payments. He paid her Cobra

Disability insurance short term : I am going on short term disability tomorrow. My work is asking me to pay my health insurance premiums completely; I will not have to pay my disability premium. They are currently $500 and I pay $25 of that monthly. I have health insurance through my husband too.

Now I really want to drop it because they are going to make m

Disability insurance short term : I am going to need to have time off for a surgery. I am in Indiana. It is likely that I will need to have at least eight weeks off work, and when I asked my doctor about going back to work, they said that my pain would dictate my ability. So no clear cut answer, but at least two weeks off which would qualify me for disablity. Our policy says that if you can work a percentage of your job then you have to. My employer tells me that my job isn't part time. I have to be there 100%, but I cant be.

Disability insurance short term : I'm a store manager for a major retailer. I also am deeply unhappy with my current job. And, oh yeah, I'm pregnant.
