Japanese term or phrase: 責任開始期以後
Term in an insurance contract. It's a common term, and I understand that it means "after the start of the term of responsibility", but I can't find the standard translation of the phrase.

after the effective date of the contract
Explanation:
A definition of the term 責任開始期 in Japanese can be found at the following link:

http://channel.goo.ne.jp/money/nk-money/insurance/words/15.h...

Based on this definition the translation I came up with was:

"the period after the effective date of the contract"

The following link defines the term "effective date" and also speaks of an "elimination period" or "waiting period" which are both defined as "A specific period of time which must pass before any policy benefits will be available. This is often included in disability and unemployment coverage." So I guess you could also use these terms in some way if you wanted ("after the elimination period" etc.), but I think it is better to say "effective date".
