Add Comment Question: Hello, I am on LTD for mental health reasons (after 6 months of STD) and get paid 65% of my regular income. In May/June I will get knee replacement surgery. Will this get me back into STD for the time of recovery (appr. 6 months)? Answer: I'm going to email you about this directly.
