EDGE Loss of Income plans provide more than just income replacement while you’re disabled
Who
39-year-young Realtor, Employee
What Happened
This EDGE policyholder broke both legs during a dirt biking accident and was unable to work for several months while undergoing therapy.
Compensation
In addition to receiving monthly income replacement while he was disabled, this policyholder’s premiums were waived, he received an additional lump sum of $3000 from his EDGE Fracture Accident Benefits policy, and his Loss of Income policy reimbursed him for physiotherapy, an electric wheelchair and air cast boots.
End Result
Despite suffering fairly significant injuries, this young realtor was able to return to life as normal in just a few months. Because he chose a 0-day waiting period, he was able to start rehabilitative treatment immediately and use the prescribed medical devices to facilitate a speedy recovery, without dipping into savings or worrying about making ends meet. EDGE’s inexpensive Fracture Accident rider provided an additional cushion above and beyond his income replacement and medical treatment benefits.
