STD Claim Forms
Overview
DriveTime offers both short-term and long-term disability
benefits in order to provide financial assistance if you are unable
to work due to pregnancy, or a non work-related illness or
injury.
When you enroll in the LTD coverage, DT pays for the more expensive
STD. The disability benefit provisions of the Short-Term
Disability (STD) plan and the Long-Term Disability (LTD) plan are
different. If you qualify for STD benefits, you should not presume
that you will also qualify for LTD benefits.
How to Enroll
You can enroll in the DriveTime STD/LTD plan as part of your
benefit election and the coverage will be effective the 61st day
following your date of hire.
If you are on a Leave of Absence (LOA) when you request to
enroll in the plan, coverage begins on the day you return to full
active duty with no medical restrictions.
Definition of a Disability
You are considered disabled and eligible for benefits under the
DriveTime STD plan when you are unable to perform your regular and
customary work because of any physical or mental illness, injury,
or condition.
Termination of Individual Coverage
Your coverage will terminate on the earliest of:
- Midnight on the date you terminate employment.
- Midnight on the date upon which you commence a LOA without pay or
a layoff without pay. The date you cease to be an eligible
employee. The date of death of the employee.
- The date the plan terminates; however, plan termination shall not
affect any benefits payable to you for a
disability that commenced prior to plan termination.
