What Does Accidental Death And Disability Insurance Cover?
- 63333 POINTSview profilePeggy MaceMost of the U.S.I know of only one product called Accidental Death and Disability Insurance, and it is a product sold by Assurant. In the United States, Accidental Death Insurance is different from Disability Insurance. Accidental Death coverage pays a lump sum if someone dies from a serious accident. Disability Insurance pays a monthly benefit to survivors of accident or illness who are disabled as a result.Answered on September 9, 2013flag this answer
