Own Specialty Definitions of Disability

In this video, we take a quick tour of contract definitions that are offered out there, to explain the differences between contracts. The ‘Big 6’ Disability Insurance Carriers typically have this definition typically included unless you specifically request to leave that off of the contract.

🩺 Whether you are a physician, dentist or another medical professional, this type of insurance will protect the inability to work due to an illness or injury; while allowing you to collect an income from another source. ⚕️ You can double dip and collect income from both the insurance carrier and 1099/W2 income in your name.

Typically we recommend you purchasing your ‘Own Occupation’ plan while you are young and healthy. By doing so, you can rate lock your plan, be able to buy more coverage as an attending regardless of your risk factors and have no exclusions on your policies.

WHO SHOULD YOU BUY FROM?

**Independent Brokers** are going to able to take these factors and then shop rates on your behalf:

☑️ Age
☑️ Gender
☑️ State of Residence
☑️ Are you in training?
☑️ Are you an attending? (there may still be discounts available)
☑️ Are you moving soon?
☑️ What riders do you want?

You should select an Independent Insurance Brokers that will be able to help you throughout your career and a team that you can count on over the years; one that works nationally to assist you as you may move throughout your career.
