Non-Occupational Disability. If a professional employee ceases work because of a non-occupational disability, coverage shall continue as long as such disability continues up to the last day of the 12th month following the month in which the disability absence begins. If accumulated sick leave continues beyond the 12th month, coverage shall continue until the last day of the month in which sick leave is exhausted. The foregoing applies whether or not the professional employee uses a leave of absence on account of the disability.
