What
does the life insurance application process involve?
Once you select an insurance
company and rate, you then can request an application by filling
out the application request form.
Once you request the insurance application, a licensed agent
from Matrix Direct will contact you and set up a convenient
appointment for a no-charge physical exam. The physical exam
can take place in your home or office, and is performed by a
medical professional at no cost to you (the insurance company
pays for the exam).
Upon completion of the application and physical exam, Matrix
Direct will submit the information to the underwriting insurance
company. Four to eight weeks are required for the life insurance
company to underwrite and issue the policy.
The entire process is that simple!

chance of becoming disabled than of dying prematurely.

Commissioners Individual Disability Table a 40 year old American
has a 48% chance of becoming disabled for three months or longer,
while a 25 year old has a 58% chance!

insurance you need depends upon your current income requirements.

earnings or to a maximum dollar amount (Usually 60% to 70% of
your current income).Would this limited amount be enough for
you and your family to live on? Would you have alternative means
of support? Be sure to discuss this matter with your insurance
professional.
How Much Does Disability Insurance Cost?
Disability insurance
premiums can range from as little as a few hundred dollars to
several thousand annually, it just depends on your individual
situation. It usually makes the most sense to purchase as much
coverage as you can comfortably afford.
