University Life and Disability Insurance Plans
LTD insurance is provided at no cost to benefits-eligible employees through The Standard. After a 90-day period of disability, 60% of the employee's base monthly salary will be paid for a permanent or temporary disability, up to a maximum benefit of $10,000 a month.
How to File a Claim?
To file a claim by telephone, contact The Standard's Claim In take Center at 855-201-3741. To file a claim online, go to and scroll to the bottom of the page and click on "File a Claim or Request a Leave" to begin. Instructions will be provided through the entire claim submission process.
Note: If you submit your claim online, the claim submission system will indicate a requirement for a Disability Insurance Employer’s Statement to be received before a decision may be made on your claim. Although this is a requirement, you do not need to take this to your employer. Upon receipt of your Employee Statement, The Standard will reach out to your employer to obtain the information needed for your claim.
You may also contact Human Resources directly at 251-460-6133 or via email at employeebenefitshr@southalabama.edu if you need further assistance to file a claim.
