HOW IT WORKS

Short-Term Disability – Back Injury / Story

Susan falls down carrying laundry and hurts her back.

Her injury is severe enough to prevent her from returning to work for two months.

Susan’s employer gives her time off, but with no pay.

She makes $3,000 a month, but now she needs income to help cover her bills. Susan files a claim on her AME Trust Short-Term Disability policy.

AME Trust has her back.

After filing a claim, her policy pays her $1,800 each month (60% of her income) for the time she’s absent from work.
