The definition of “disability” is one of the most important parts of a disability insurance contract as it is the primary basis for determining if benefits will be paid when totally disabled.
Statistically, you are more likely to become partially disabled than totally disabled.If a disability policy did not include the right clauses for residual benefits, you could go through a period during which your income is collapsing, while still needing to make payments and receiving no payout from the insurance company.
Get insight to the various riders and optional benefits you can include in your policy such as cost of living adjustment, catastrophic disability benefit rider and COBRA premium benefit.
Group disability plans are fine for a temporary solution or to supplement the coverage of an individual disability policy, but the limitations and more restrictive definition of total disability can’t provide the maximum protection physicians need. Get non-cancelable, affordable coverage through an individual plan.
Understand how your disability insurance can secure your future.
Physicians have more at stake than any other profession. Protecting your income with disability insurance is critical for maintaining wealth when unforeseen circumstances occur.
