What is TPD Insurance?
Total & Permanent Disability or TPD Insurance offers you protection if you become disabled due to injury or illness that prevents you from working. You will receive a total lump sum payment that you can use for medical treatments, daily expenses, and rehabilitation.
TPD insurance covers a wide range of conditions and disabilities like strokes, mental illness, and nervous system diseases. It can be a stand-alone policy, but most often, it is bundled with life insurance policies for comprehensive coverage.
With TPD policies, you have an option to cover all occupations where you are no longer able to work anywhere, or to include your current occupation.

How much does TPD insurance Cost?
