Short-term and long-term disability plans

Disability Insurance is a type of insurance that provides financial support to individuals who are unable to work due to a disability, whether it’s caused by an accident, illness, or injury. This coverage is designed to replace a portion of the policyholder’s income, helping them maintain their standard of living and meet financial obligations during a period when they cannot earn an income.

Disability insurance compensates for lost income if a policyholder is unable to work due to a qualifying disability. It provides regular payments, typically a percentage of the individual’s pre-disability income, ensuring they have the financial means to cover living expenses like rent, mortgage, utilities, groceries, and other daily needs.
