Even if someone has a long-term disability insurance plan, there can be a number of benefits to applying for SSDI. These include regular monthly income, medical benefits through http://www.allsup.com/Financial-Matters/Managing-Healthcare-Costs/Medicare.aspx [Medicare] (after 24 months of entitlement to SSDI) and prescription drug coverage.
