Total and Permanent Disability insurance (TPD) is designed to help take the pressure off you financially if you suffer an illness or injury that leaves you totally and permanently disabled.The lump sum benefit paid is often used to eliminate debts, pay for medical expenses or fund permanent lifestyle changes.he right amount of cover means that, in the event of serious illness or injury, youâll have funds available to: 1  Pay off the mortgage and other debts. 2  Make home modifications or pay for rehabilitation. 3  Pay for nursing or other medical care. 4  Meet ongoing household expenses. 5  Pay for your childrenâs education.
States use your permanent disability rating to determine the amount of monetary compensation you will receive to compensate you for your permanent impairment due to your industrial injury or occupational disease. In some states, the permanent disability rating corresponds to a certain number of weeks of wages worth of income you will be paid. For example, in California, a 10% permanent disability amounts to 30 weeks worth of wages. In other states, your permanent disability rating corresponds to an exact dollar figure. For instance, a 8% left knee impairment may equal $4,572.
