Types of
disability insurance

True own-occupation disability insurance is often the preferred choice of doctors and other medical professionals: It allows the policyholder to claim benefits even if they’re able to earn an income in a job outside their chosen profession. Any other policy definitions, on the other hand, may not provide benefits if the policyholder can find employment that’s not in their preferred field.
