    Benefits Stop When Definition of Own Occupation Becomes Any Occupation [Podcast] (opens the original)

    Episode notes · Neutral tone

    Read excerpt

    For an attorney relying on a law firm’s group disability plan, coverage for the exact same injury can play out two completely different ways depending on how long the disability has lasted. Most group long-term disability policies define disability one way for the first two years of coverage, and a different way after that.
