MetLife's Disability Income (DI) Insurance Association discount program offers you an opportunity to receive high-quality individual disability income insurance at discounted rates.1
MetLife's DI Insurance can provide you with the comprehensive coverage you may need to help you meet your financial obligations in the event of a disabling illness or injury.
The program offers:
- 10% premium discount with gender distinct rates.
- Noncancelable2 and Guaranteed Renewable coverage restricts MetLife from cancelling your coverage or increasing your premium before age 65 on certain policies, as long as your premiums are paid on time.
- Opportunity to customize coverage with optional riders,3 such as:
Your Occupation Total Disability in Your Occupation means that you are considered totally disabled if a disability prevents you from preforming the material and substantial duties of your regular occupation and you are receiving appropriate care from a physician.
Residual Disability allows you to receive a partial disability benefit, under certain conditions, if a partial disability causes you to lose 20% or more of your earnings.
Catastrophic Disability provides an additional monthly benefit in the event your condition meets the criteria as defined in the rider. Ask your representative for complete details.4
Guaranteed Insurability Benefit allows you to increase your coverage as your income increases over time, without any medical underwriting at the time of increase. Financial underwriting is required to determine eligibility for an increase in coverage.
Cost of Living Adjustment helps your benefits keep pace with inflation when a disability lasts more than one year.
- Members will be fully underwritten.
