Duration of Benefits
When talking about disability insurance there are two types of duration:
Short Term: This type of coverage provides coverage for disabilities of up to two
years, but most policies pay up to six months on average.
Long Term: This type of coverage protects for a longer time period (on average
more than six months), often until age 65 or for life.
Certain exclusions may apply to disability policies that are worth identifying, and
these may vary from policy to policy.
Two-year maximum benefit period for mental or nervous disorders
One-year maximum benefit period for alcohol or drug abuse related claims
Exclusion for payment of disability claims if injury or disability occurred
during the commitment of a crime
Exclusion for disability claims resulting from an act of war. This is not very
common, but may exist in certain contracts.
