Is individual disability insurance for me?

Do I need short term or long term disability insurance?

The primary distinction between short-term and long-term disability insurance lies in the duration of benefits during work incapacity, known as the benefit period.

Short-term disability insurance covers a brief period after illness or injury, typically 13-26 weeks, replacing 40-70% of income.

Conversely, long-term disability offers extended benefits, usually spanning years, ranging from 5 to retirement age, depending on the plan.

Buying your own individual disability insurance

Individual disability insurance suits those without workplace coverage or high earners seeking additional protection. Portable and independent of employment changes, it offers continuous coverage.

For enhanced protection, consider supplementing your long-term or individual disability plan with extra coverage. Supplemental disability insurance is valuable for safeguarding a higher percentage of income, including bonuses and commissions, and may be available through your employer.
