This form of insurance protects workers from injuries and illnesses which prevent them from doing their jobs. It can pay for existing commitments the policyholders may have such as outstanding bills, mortgages, utilities, and more.
Workers’ compensation is common in the US, and pays a worker his wages and medical expenses in the event of an injury on the job.
Permanent disability which prevents a worker from ever working again is covered by total permanent disability insurance. This provides the disabled employee with benefits for the rest of his or her life, or according to the terms specified in the policy. Companies can purchase a similar type of insurance, called, disability overhead insurance. This pays for ongoing overhead costs of a business while the owners are not able to work.
A Catastrophic Health Insurance plan, also known as a high deductible health plan, is good to have for those who prefer to pay lower monthly premiums. If your plan is eligible for a Health Savings Account, you can use those funds to pay the deductible and out-of-pocket expenses which saves you money in the long run.
