Worksite Short Term Disability
Professional Insurance Programs, a division of WDA Insurance & Services Corp, and Illinois Mutual have teamed up to provide this exclusive program to Wisconsin dentists and staff. Illinois Mutual is a “best in class” regional carrier known for its customer service and understanding of the types of coverage today’s dental team members are looking for.
Most people rely on their income to pay for their day-to-day expenses. Short term disability insurance helps prepare for the unexpected by providing a monthly monetary benefit intended to help replace up to 60%* of a person’s income during their benefit period if total disability due to illness or injury prevents them from working.
