“Be aware of the definition of disability within the policy.” - William’s advice on disability coverage

Disability definitions generally fall into three categories.

William Shung can also help with your disability coverage at LSM Insurance.

1. Any Occupation – Under this definition, total disability means the inability to work at “any occupation.” Therefore, if you were a computer consultant, and your disability prevented you from performing your regular occupation duties, but you are still gainfully able to work as a check out clerk, you will not receive a benefit.

2. Regular Occupation - Under this definition, Total Disability means the inability to work at your regular occupation

3. Own Occupation – This is the gold standard definition. Under this definition, total disability is defined as the inability to work at your regular occupation, regardless of whether you work in another gainful occupation. All things being equal, the better the definition of disability, the higher the monthly premium.
