A questions about short-term and state disability....

I qualify for short-term disability at my work. I am covered for about 12 weeks. I plan to take 4-6 weeks. The first two weeks will be covered 100% and the rest (up to 10 weeks) will be covered 70%. I was wondering if I could also apply for state disability and get the other 30% covered. Also, how do I apply for either of them? I have filled out all the paperwork for the FMLA at work, but I don't know how to apply for the short term disability. Is this automatic? I know my doc will probably help me with the state ones. Any help would be appreciated.
