A lot of people think that they don’t need disability insurance. But studies now show that 3 out of 10 employees ages 25 to 65 will experience a disability or illness that will affect their ability to work for at least a three-month period. If you depend on income from your salary to live month to month, you cannot afford to lose your income for months on end, especially at a time when you will have increased medical bills, including costly copays. If your incapacity from work is arising out of and in the course of employment, you will likely be entitled to weekly workers’ compensation benefits. But if your injury is not work related, you’ll need to replace your lost income some other way. This is where long term disability insurance comes into play. You can often obtain both short term and a long term disability insurance from your employer.
