Group Long Term Disability Insurance

Trust GEBA - For Paycheck Protection If You Suffer A Disability

GEBA’s Group Long Term Disability (LTD) coverage with New York Life Insurance Company helps provide “active” Federal employees (excluding military) a portion of your monthly income if you become disabled due to a debilitating accident or illness and can no longer work. 

Coverage Highlights: As a federal employee, you are not covered for LTD insurance for the first 18 months of your employment. With GEBA, Federal employees up to age 60 can apply for coverage with a 90 or 180-day waiting period.

GEBA’s Group LTD plan provides tax-free* payments up to $7,500 per month (not to exceed 67% of gross monthly salary). Note: Coverage is unavailable in NH, ME, OR, VT.

  • FERS employees receive 60% of your salary for the first year of disability (which is taxable), and 40% of your salary – until you are eligible for normal retirement. 
  • CSRS employees receive 40% of your salary (which is taxable) – until you are eligible for normal retirement. 


Choose Group Long Term Disability coverage with GEBA and
join more than 16,000 satisfied members of the intelligence community and the broader federal workforce. Membership in GEBA is free as long as you maintain coverage.

Here’s what GEBA’s Comprehensive Disability Insurance includes**:

Up to six annual adjustments will be made, with a maximum annual increase of 6%.

Partial Disability and Rehabilitation Benefits

Premiums will be waived after you begin receiving your benefit for a covered disability.

Coverage for a working spouse/domestic partner is also available (Member coverage is required)

Exclusive member-only group rates with many convenient payment options

Think the Government has you Covered?
GEBA vs. FERS

Even if you qualify, the FERS disability coverage you have as a government employee may not be enough if you suffer a long term disability.

Supplemental coverage from GEBA offers flexibility that may make sense.

Plus, GEBA also offers coverage for a working spouse/domestic partner, FERS does not. (GEBA member coverage is required)

30-DAY
FREE LOOK

When you become insured, you will be sent a Certificate of Insurance summarizing your coverage.

If you’re not completely satisfied with the Certificate’s terms you may return it, without claim, within 30 days and your premium will be promptly refunded. No questions asked! Your insurance will then be invalidated.
