Long-Term Protection for Your Long-Term Well-Being
Your ability to earn an income is one of your most valuable assets. Teamsters VIP+ Long-Term Disability (LTD) Insurance protects this asset by providing you with a steady income if an illness or injury prevents you from working for an extended period. Here’s why securing LTD Insurance is a wise decision:
Lasting Security
Teamsters VIP+ LTD Insurance offers financial support for up to 5 years, protecting your lifestyle and your family’s financial future.
Comprehensive Coverage
While Teamsters VIP+ STD covers the immediate aftermath of a disability, Teamsters VIP+ LTD ensures you are protected for the long haul, covering a wide range of disabling conditions and situations.
Peace of Mind
Knowing you have a financial safety net allows you to focus on your health and rehabilitation without the burden of financial worries.
Fill the Gaps
The Teamsters VIP+ LTD is uniquely constructed to pay in addition to any employer-provided LTD benefits and Social Security Disability benefits to ensure your income is adequately protected. Stackable with other eligible benefits, up to 70% of pre-disability earnings.
Customizable Plans
The Teamsters VIP+ LTD benefit levels and duration can be customized to fit your specific needs.
