Can you go on vacation while on short term disability?

No one can stop you from going on vacation while on disability but it may cause suspicion or even lead to an investigation in your case. The question your adjuster may ask is "If you are so disabled that you are unable to work, why are you able to take a vacation?" Basically it depends on your disability. If for example, you have a limitation on mobility and you go on vacation, it may draw suspicion. If you tell the adjuster, "I work because I can't walk" and then go Disney World...red flag. If you have a limitation on something like a hand or arm, maybe not so much unless you go on vacation to a place in which physical activity is performed and the use of that hand or arm.
