Title

Relating to disability insurance policies; to authorize disability insurers to offer paid family leave benefit policies.

Description

Under existing law, disability insurance benefits do not provide paid family leave to employees for certain circumstances related to serious health conditions, care for a newborn, newly adopted or newly placed foster care child, immediate family members on active duty military service, or care for another family member.

This bill would authorize insurers providing employee disability policies to expand disability insurance benefits to include family leave under specific circumstances for which paid leave is not currently available, subject to certain limitations and exclusions.
