Registered Nurse

Market Watch

Registered nurses need disability insurance just like their medical doctor co-workers. Although registered nurses employed in the state and federal government can make underwriting trickier, you can get the product and processes to help expedite the sale.

Over 3.1 million RNs in the U.S.*

Expected to grow 6% over the next 10 years*

Client Scenario

Taylor is a 32-year-old registered nurse in Morgantown, WV, earning $78,000. At the local hospital, she sees the impact of disabilities on her patients every day. Taylor is married and pregnant with her first child. 
Occupation Class: 3A | Non-smoker

Concerns

As the primary breadwinner, Taylor’s income is vital for her family’s stability. They have $180,000 left on their 20-year mortgage, and about $12,000 in credit card debt. She has 10 years left on her $650 monthly student loan payment. With a household income of $160,000, and a debt-to-credit ratio nearing 35%, financial flexibility is limited as they plan to buy a bigger house for their growing family.

Solution

Protecting Taylor’s paycheck will be a competing priority with other bills now and in the future. Taylor applies for a disability insurance policy with Accident & Sickness coverage. It provides a $900 weekly benefit for up to 2 years with a 90/90 day elimination period to cover her basic needs.
