Disability Insurance, often called DI or disability income insurance, or income protection, is a form of insurance that insures the beneficiary’s earned income against the risk that a disability creates a barrier for completion of core work functions
Protecting your income
When an long-term disability happens, you’ll have enough to worry about. How you replace your income shouldn’t be one of them. Disability insurance provides peace of mind income during the time you’re out of work.
However, there are some things to consider when planning your insurance needs. The cost and the coverage are the two most important.
Your income may be your greatest asset. Having the right coverage begins with understanding your options. At PRP insurance, we will ask you the right questions to help you better understand your needs. Together, we can plan for your peace of mind.
