Question

What could I lose by changing disability insurance coverage now?

The specific question for me is this: what could I lose by changing disability insurance coverage now? The part I keep coming back to is that a worker wants to know whether employer disability coverage is enough and how an individual policy would define disability.

For the coverage analysis, disability insurance should be evaluated by the income it protects and the definition of a covered disability, not only the monthly benefit. For the coverage analysis, a life change is a good time to review coverage amount, beneficiaries, ownership, portability, and whether premiums remain affordable. As part of the policy review, employer coverage and an individual policy can complement each other. Read the policy contract alongside the current illustration or benefit summary, then have a licensed professional confirm in writing which guarantees, exclusions, surrender limits, and beneficiary terms apply.
