Types of disability coverage

Short-term disability*

Usually covers you for 3-6 months, but some policies can cover you for up to a year.

Insurance for business owners

This is my second time using Policygenius. The first time was for term life insurance and this time for individual disability insurance. I can’t say enough good things about this service. It is extremely easy to work with them and they do a great job of identifying and explaining all the options of the available policies to help you choose.

Getting coverage while you’re younger keeps it affordable (and keeps you from becoming a cautionary tale).

Discount eligibility
