What is Disability Insurance?
Disability insurance provides a monthly benefit (income replacement) if you’re unable to work due to illness, injury, or accident.
It can cover short-term (a few months) or long-term (years or until retirement) disabilities.
Benefits typically replace 50–70% of your income, helping you maintain your lifestyle while you recover.

Peace of Mind
Your Income Is Your Most Valuable Asset
- Everything you pay for—your home, bills, savings, retirement—depends on your ability to earn.
- Disability insurance helps you protect that income stream if you can’t work.
Most Disabilities Aren’t From Accidents
- Many are caused by illnesses like cancer, back problems, heart disease, or mental health issues—not just injuries.
Employer Coverage May Be Limited
- Work-provided disability insurance often doesn’t fully replace your income and may end if you leave your job.
- An individual policy stays with you, no matter where you work.
Prevents Financial Hardship
- Without income protection, even a short period off work can quickly drain savings or force debt.
- Disability insurance keeps you financially stable during recovery.

- Knowing your income is protected allows you to focus on getting better, not on how to pay the bills.
Disability insurance protects your ability to earn a living, which is the foundation of all your financial goals. It’s worth considering if you rely on your paycheck—and most people do.
