“While state PML benefits can be helpful, some employees may need additional income protection to cover living expenses if a disability prevents them from working,” said Donna Longo, assistant vice president of Product and Market Development at Colonial Life.
Sixty-three percent of households state they would feel the financial impact of a wage earner becoming disabled in six months or less.1
Disability Plus is an innovative and unique solution because there are three flexible plan options that can offer benefits during and after state program benefits end. It also includes:
- Optional health benefits available such as mental and nervous, hospital confinement and critical illness
- Guarantee issued options; no health questions asked
- Benefits for returning to work part-time
- Easy online claim submission and payment processing
