Disability Insurance Awareness Month Promotes Financial Security

Disability-themed Webinar and enhanced consumer toolkit mark CIGNA’s support of Disability Insurance Awareness Month

CIGNA is proud to support the second annual Disability Insurance Awareness Month (DIAM) in May. To increase awareness of the importance of disability insurance, we have expanded our popular online Disability Consumer Education Kit with additional resources, including a new video that shows how CIGNA helped provide peace of mind for a member that enabled her to focus on getting well and back to work. Visit www.cigna.com/diam for additional resources for consumers, employers and brokers that help underscore the value of disability insurance.

The right disability insurance program can benefit employers as well. On May 15, CIGNA is hosting a web seminar, Innovative Approaches to Productivity Management - A new role for disability programs in workplace health. Learn how forward-thinking disability management programs can help prevent or reduce disability claim incidence. And, when a disability can be prevented, discover how a new approach to disability management can pay off even more. Register for this one-hour session filled with practical advice and real-life examples at www.benefitnews.com/cigna

And don’t forget to take advantage of our Academy by CIGNA continuing education program, which offers several disability courses for CE credit at times and locations convenient to you. Check with your CIGNA sales representative for the course and location that’s right for you.
