Disability insurance and social security

Posted: Mon Jul 04, 2005 09:50 am Post Subject: Disability insurance and social security

In the US, social security provides ‘retirement income, health care for the aged, and disability coverage for eligible workers and their dependents'. Disability insurance gives you protection in two ways: such as when you are not able to work in your profession and when the occupation is not gainful you are working at which is more than what a social security covers . People need disability insurance depending on the risk factors related to their works. For example it is more important for a mason to be insured under this scheme, rather than an intellect worker. Well, mental disability is a matter of concern.

It is income paid to you weekly or monthly when you can’t work because of sickness or injury. The pay out provided may be stated as a percentage of income or as a set dollar amount. The policy defines how much you will be paid, how soon after you are disabled payments appear in your mailbox, and when they will cease. Benefits periods may depend on whether the disability was caused by an accident or illness. The longer the benefit period, the higher the premium will be.

There many different kinds of disability contracts. Some plans are available from your employer through its group health package and from private insurers. There are also various public sector programs including Social Security and some State Disability Insurance programs. Veterans, members of the armed forces, federal civil servants and coal miners are also covered by federally-sponsored programs.

Injuries or sickness as a result of your employment may also be covered by worker’s compensation
Social Security Disability Insurance pays benefits to you and certain members of your family if you are "insured," meaning that you worked long enough and paid Social Security taxes.

Supplemental Security Income pays benefits based on financial need.
