Unum payments offset

Asked on March 25th 2025 by Gina
Work for a school district and went out on leave Oct 2024. Unum had a 60 day waiting period. I was approved for SSA 3 years ago, but I did receive payment. In Sep 2024, I accepted PartA and SSA payments began Dec 2024. Approved for Unum Mar 2025, why is my SSA outset?

You should only have an SSA offset for any period that overlaps with the UNUM payment. Please see the deductible source of income section of your UNUM policy for further explanation.
