Portability

Individual Disability Income (IDI) coverage is generally Guaranteed Renewable and often Non-Cancellable to age 65 or older - meaning the insurer cannot cancel or increase the premium until that time, provided the premium is paid - even if the employee leaves the business or the program is terminated.

Employee Paid

Employees can pay 100% of the cost from the beginning, or you can design your own subsidy.

Billing can be handled any way you like - list billing to the organization or directly to individuals.  Either way, employees get a discount.

Low Participation Requirements

Only three (3) policies are required to start, and if participation falls below this threshold existing policyholders will not be adversely affected.

Employee paid Disability Insurance Seattle Bellevue Own Occupation

Own-Occupation Coverage

Own-occupation coverage for the full Benefit Period is fairly standard, meaning it should pay even if the insured individual can do something else.  True Own-Occupation, which pays full benefits even if working in a different occupation at the same time, is also available.

Custom Configurations

Employees can custom-configure their own policies, including the Elimination Period, Benefit Period, Benefit Amount and Riders, subject to underwriting constraints.

No Earnings Reporting

There is no need to update the carrier with earnings or hours because these types of policies offer fixed monthly indemnity dollar benefits rather than a percentage of earnings.  Perfect for employees with volatile earnings.

Non ERISA Disability Insurance Seattle Bellevue

Non-ERISA disability insurance

Certain programs can be designed to avoid being classified as ERISA, which can be an advantage in the event of a claims dispute.  These programs are commonly used for insuring sophisticated buyers familiar with the issue, such as Partners of law firms, because they are not easily scalable.
