Can Health System employees be covered under the Voluntary Short-Term Disability and Duke Disability programs at the same time?
Yes, because approved Voluntary Short-Term Disability benefits would be payable in advance of approved Duke Disability (STD) benefits after a four week waiting period. Does Duke provide Short-Term Disability coverage to its University/Medical Center employees? No, as University/Medical Center employees, Duke does not provide this coverage. Such employees should consider purchasing the Voluntary Short-Term Disability Plan.
