Disability Insurance for Medical Students

Important insurance protection to have if a disability prevents you from continuing your medical education.

Why Disability Income Insurance for Medical Students?

An unexpected disability due to a medical illness or injury is probably the last thing on your mind right now, but they do happen. The financial impact could be devastating. As a medical student you understand how quickly expenses compound. Now imagine you’re faced with medical bills on top of your living expenses and student loans. The AMA-sponsored Medical Student Group Disability Insurance Plan can offer some protection.

Guaranteed acceptance – no physical exam or health questions

You won’t have to find the time for a medical exam or even answer any health questions. Your signature is all you need to enroll, as long as you’re a full-time medical student under age 40 and attending an accredited medical school.

Guaranteed coverage can continue after graduation

Your coverage can be converted to the AMA-sponsored Disability Pro “Own-Specialty” Disability Insurance after graduation regardless of your health at that time. This coverage can help you start your residency with the confidence of increased disability insurance protection. You can be accepted with no health questions to answer and are immediately eligible for up to $2,000 in monthly benefits. And, when your medical training is completed and you begin to practice you can apply for even higher monthly benefits on an underwritten basis.
