New York Disability Insurance
The most valuable resource that anyone possesses is their ability to provide
an income. If everything else that you own or care about is insured and this
ability is removed there may be no way possible to pay the premiums on
other insurance or even to keep that which is insured.
Even with benefits such as New York Workers'
Compensation and Social Security, individual disability
insurance benefits are still important. A disability
financially can be worse than death, since living
expenses continue and may increase due to a need for
expensive specialized care. Many people also purchase
disability insurance to help ensure a continuous income
should they suffer disabilities that are not covered by
Social Security.
Individual disability insurance coverages pay a
percentage of your salary if you become temporarily
disabled, meaning that you are not able to work due to
sickness or injury (excluding on-the-job injuries, which
are covered by workers' compensation insurance).
Disability insurance will provide you with an income
should you become sick or disabled.
Disability insurance policies have a fixed monthly
benefit that does not increase with time, although you
can purchase extra coverage, or riders, that offer
higher payment schedules.
Disability types include:
Own Occupation - the inability to perform the duties
of your specific occupation or
Any Occupation - the
inability to perform the duties of any job for which
your education and training make you qualified.
You can choose the length of the waiting period on
your disability insurance policy. Waiting periods can
range from one week to two years and the longer you
wait the less your disability insurance policy will cost.

You also can choose the length of the benefit period,
which is how long you will receive monthly benefits
once your disability insurance policy starts paying.

Short Term Disability Insurance Policy Features - New York
Short term disability insurance is sometimes referred to as Accident and Sickness
insurance. It provides benefits for a limited period of time, typically 26 weeks or less.
Short term disability usually provides coverage for accidents or illnesses outside of
work when New York Worker's Compensation insurance does not apply.
You would begin receiving money from your New York short term disability
insurance policy within 1 to14 days after becoming sick or disabled. The actual time
for coverage to begin depends on whether you suffer an illness or injury. If you
suffer an injury, your benefits will be paid immediately. If you suffer an illness, it will
take longer because there needs to be sufficient time to show that the illness is
grave enough to be disabling.
You choose the amount of income (up to 66% of your gross income) from $400 to
$2000 a month when you can't work due to an accident or illness.
Benefit periods of up to 2 years!
Short waiting periods 1 to 14 days!
