Long-term
disability insurance: No Cost

If you’re unable to work because of a sickness or injury, long-term disability insurance helps protect your income while you recover at home. After you have been disabled for 12 months, you may qualify for a monthly benefit of 50% of your base pay up to $20,000 per month. This is an employer-sponsored benefit at no cost to you.

Also, you may purchase a low-cost “buy-up option” as a new employee or during our annual open enrollment for 60% of your base pay, up to $20,000 per month.

Long-term care insurance: Discounted Cost

Available to you, your spouse or for adult children, long-term care insurance is an optional benefit that offers financial protection in case you or a family member can no longer perform everyday activities, such as eating, bathing or dressing. This kind of care is usually not covered by medical or disability insurance, or by Medicare.
Coverage is provided through Unum. For more information, or to enroll, please visit CMC’s Caregiving Exchange.
