Long-Term Disability (LTD) Recipients

The Benefits Office administers offers its Long-Term Disability (LTD) recipients a broad selection of benefits options. If you have questions, call the HR/Payroll Service Center at 734-615-2000 or 1-866-647-7657 (toll free for off-campus long-distance calling within the U.S.) from 8:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m., Monday - Friday, and ask to speak with a Long-Term Disability representative.

Definition of Disability
University disability plans define disability as a time when you are totally disabled, no longer able to engage in any occupation or employment for which you are suited by education or training, and the disability is expected to last at least 12 months.

If you are a practicing physician, the Expanded Long-Term Disability Plan, under a special provision, will provide partial disability coverage.

 

Every effort has been made to ensure the accuracy of the benefits information in this site.

If any inconsistency exists between this site and the written plans or contracts, the actual provisions of each benefit plan will govern. The University in its sole discretion may modify, amend, or terminate the benefits provided with respect to any individual receiving benefits, including active employees, retirees, and their spouses, partners, and dependents.
