A troubling industry trend that began prior to the pandemic is on the rise. Employers are facing a new type of benefit dilemma with unprecedented long-term disability (LTD) rate increases, as pricing models attempt to normalize claims experience initiated by quarantine measures, lockdowns, and a near zero-interest rate environment. From the significant shift in benefit plan utilization to the changing behaviours in the management of disability claims, employers will need to look to the trends over the past year to prepare and protect themselves against the new pressures placed on their benefits plans moving forward.
Learning Objectives:
- Partner with carriers to ensure accountability, communication, and collaboration
- Develop an awareness of the integration of benefit programs to reduce financial exposure to group plans
- Obtain better insight of the contractual provisions in the assessment of total disability
