Disability, Part I (Primer)

Many consumers underestimate—or are unaware of—the need for disability insurance (DI). Even those who have some coverage can be unaware of gaps that could undermine their financial health. Disability, Part I (Primer) provides the information you need to introduce your members and clients to the benefits of DI coverage and how it fits in with their overall financial planning.
