Disability
Disability insurance can keep you financially stable should you become disabled and unable to work. It can help provide a sense of security, knowing that if the unexpected should happen, you’ll still receive a monthly income.
Things To Know About LTD Insurance
- It can protect you from having to tap into your retirement savings.
- You can use LTD benefits however you need, for housing, food, medical bills, etc.
- Benefits can last a long time―from weeks to even years―if you remain eligible.
LTD Benefits Cushion The Financial Impact of a Disability
Long-Term Disability (LTD) insurance replaces part of your income for longer term issues such as:

If you qualify, payments may be reduced by state, federal, or private disability benefits you receive while disabled. San Francisco Symphony pays the cost of this coverage.
