Understanding Total & Permanent Disablement (TPD)
A common misconception about Total & Permanent Disablement (TPD) insurance is that you must be severely disabled to qualify. In reality, TPD eligibility is based on how your condition impacts your ability to perform the duties of your usual occupation or any job you’re trained for. It’s not limited to visible physical disabilities but includes any significant impairment, whether physical, mental, or chronic, that prevents you from working in your trained or education-related roles. The focus is on the functional impact of your condition rather than the specific nature of your disability.
What are the claim requirements of a Total & Permanent Disablement claim
The requirements for TPD claims vary based on your individual circumstances and specific policy. The assessment process may include the following:
- Eligibility Evaluation: The insurer will review your eligibility for coverage, including any disclosures made when obtaining your policy.
- Medical Evidence: Medical reports and documentation from your healthcare providers. In some instances, insurers may require an independent opinion of these reports.
- Ongoing Treatment and Rehabilitation: Records of any ongoing treatment or rehabilitation efforts and their impact on your condition.
- Employment History: Detailed records of your employment history, education and experience.
- Financial Impact: The financial implications of your disability on your ability to earn an income.
- Policy Terms and Conditions: Specific terms and conditions outlined in your insurance policy, including any exclusions or waiting periods.
