• Disability and long-term care insurance policies can help provide financial support to individuals who are unable to work due to a disability or chronic illness. These policies can provide essential financial assistance to patients and families in order to help cover the costs of medications, extended medical care, and other expenses.
• The Social Security Disability Program provides disability benefits to qualified, disabled individuals and their families. Eligibility is determined by the length of time a person has worked and paid Social Security taxes. In order to be sure of the specific guidelines and qualifications, it is best to contact the Social Security Department directly.
