Most workers assume that in case of a serious injury or disability caused by work, their employer will protect them for the future. While there are workers compensation and other employer insurance benefits, it may not protect the current life style of the employee. In most cases the income replacement is at a reduced amount leaving the family wondering how to maintain their current expenses. That is the reason that many insurance agents write policies with the option of disability income benefits.

Health insurance takes care of the medical expenses during a time of need; life insurance helps with burial, medical expenses and cash options, but what about the income that is lost? Most people think about the doctor's bills, medicine, surgery and other medical procedure, but forget about the fact that they might be unable to work. This can be costly and has forced many out of their homes, to lose their vehicles and greatly reduce their life style. Families can be protected by adding the disability income benefits to their policy.

Disability income policies or additions have a few benefits that encourage many people to consider their future. First, the premiums that are paid toward the insurance is not taxable, allowing the policy holder to reduce the actual amount spent each month. The policies can also be taken through the employment cycle with the policy holder, as they are not required to set up another policy each time they change jobs.

There are a few things to consider when purchasing insurance based on disability income benefits:

• Definition of disability - this is important because definitions can mean the difference between the policy paying out or not depending on the circumstances. There are some differences about the ability of the policy holder to work within their career or at all, so be sure to speak with the agent about the difference.
• Elimination period - most insurance benefits have an elimination period, which is the amount of time before the policy holder is eligible for benefits.
• Premium amounts, as always check around for the best coverage and the most affordable rate. Don't be afraid to ask questions as this is the best way to assure the right plan!
