If you have a life insurance policy, it provides you financial protection if the life insured suffers with disability during the policy term. The disability may arise from any of the factors as listed in the life insurance policy. To get proper cover, an individual can buy accidental death and disability rider to enhance the scope of coverage under the base policy.
