Doctors’ salaries keep rising—but here’s the problem: Most doctors’ disability insurance doesn’t.
A static payout policy means if you get disabled 10 years from now, you’ll be stuck getting paid a fraction of what you actually earn.
And if inflation spikes? You’re in even worse shape.
✅ Hospital CEOs saw salaries rise 3.2% in a single year
✅ Nurses, doctors, and healthcare workers continue to get raises
✅ 74% of integrated health systems offer long-term disability, but the general market? Only 33%
If you don’t adjust your disability policy, you’re setting yourself up to be underinsured when you need it most.
A future increase rider lets you boost your coverage automatically—without jumping through hoops. No requalification. No new medical exams. Just higher protection as your income grows.
✅ Locks in your ability to increase coverage later
✅ Keeps up with cost of living and salary growth
✅ Prevents inflation from wrecking your payout
🚨 You’ll earn more but get paid less if you’re disabled.
🚨 You could become uninsurable and stuck with outdated coverage.
🚨 Your financial future is at risk because you didn’t plan ahead.
If you’re serious about protecting your income, you need doctor disability insurance that grows with you.
