GSI Insurance Columbia University

True own-occupation disability coverage means Columbia University residents and fellows can receive disability insurance benefits if they are unable to perform the duties of their medical specialty, even if they continue working in another role.

Under the Columbia University resident disability insurance program, this feature is built into GSI insurance and forms a core part of Columbia resident disability insurance benefits.

For physicians training at Columbia University Irving Medical Center and the Vagelos College of Physicians and Surgeons, this ensures income protection is tied to their specialty, not just their ability to work in any occupation.

Start Your Columbia GSI Application

Yes. Columbia University GSI insurance is issued without reviewing medical history during the application process. That means Columbia residents can apply even if they have conditions that often lead to exclusions in fully underwritten disability insurance.

Many Columbia University residents secure GSI insurance during residency to avoid those exclusions later.

Policies are grandfathered in for life.

Request Your Guaranteed Issue Coverage
