The Canadian Life and Health Insurance Association (CLHIA) Tuesday posted a new version of its popular brochure on disability insurance on its website.

This is the sixth in a series of brochures focused on helping consumers understand life and health insurance products and services.

“The life and health insurance industry is committed to promoting financial literacy in Canada,” said Frank Swedlove, CLHIA’s president. “These plain language brochures will help Canadian consumers navigate their way through the ever-growing range of products and services offered by life and health insurance companies,” he added.

The CLHIA’s series of consumer brochures covers: life insurance; supplementary health insurance; disability insurance; travel health insurance; segregated fund contracts; and the coordination of benefits.

The brochures are available on the CLHIA website. A limited number of printed brochures are also available through the CLHIA and consumers may call 416-777-2221 or submit a web enquiry to request copies.

CLHIA says it plans to produce brochures on other industry products and services in the months ahead.
