I have short term disability coverage provided by my employer, I've been diagnosed with Bell's Palsy as well as Otitis Media which is causing me to be severely off balance. Is this type of illness typically covered under short term disability?

Hello, Your short term disability benefits would be handled by your employer. You will need to speak directly to them regarding what would be covered. ~ Heather
