New Lab Rules Make It Easier to Apply for IDI

We're always looking for ways to streamline the application process for income protection insurance. We won’t require applicants age 18-50 to submit labs or physical measurements for the following products and amounts:

  • Platinum Advantage: up to $10,000 in monthly benefits
  • Business Overhead Protector®: up to $25,000 in monthly benefits
  • Business Equity ProtectorSM: up to $750,000 in aggregate benefit amounts (no requirements for all ages up to $250,000)  

The new requirements apply to labs and exams scheduled on or after March 17, 2021. Applications dated on or before April 15, 2021 can still apply under the temporary COVID-19 guidelines, if more favorable to the applicant.

Please note that client quotes will reflect the new requirements starting in early April.
