Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about temporary disability benefits in Colorado
How are temporary disability benefits calculated in Colorado?
Temporary disability benefits are typically two-thirds of your average weekly wage, subject to state maximum and minimum limits. Shannon reviews your wage history to ensure your benefits are calculated correctly and that no income is overlooked.
What is the difference between temporary total and temporary partial disability?
Temporary total disability (TTD) applies when you cannot work at all. Temporary partial disability (TPD) applies when you can work in a reduced capacity. Shannon ensures you receive the correct classification and maximum benefits for your situation.
How long can I receive temporary disability benefits?
In Colorado, temporary disability benefits continue until you reach maximum medical improvement (MMI), return to work, or for a maximum period set by law. Shannon monitors your medical progress and fights to extend benefits when appropriate.
