Ready to Start Protecting Your Income?
Talk to your financial advisor about the right income protection options for you.
If you can't earn your usual paycheck because of a serious injury or sickness, individual disability insurance can help. Platinum Advantage can provide stand-alone income protection. Or it can be combined with your long term disability insurance to help cover a much larger portion of your salary.
The exclusive Family Care Benefit1 lets you take time away from work to care for a child, parent or spouse with a serious health condition. It can lessen the financial impact of caring for a family member by providing a monthly benefit amount. It's available if you work at least 20 percent fewer hours and you experience an income loss of 20 percent or greater.2
