The first proprietary collaboration between MGIS and Reliance Matrix is Disability Guard for Doctors™, a unique long-term disability product blending the highly valued policy provisions of an individual product with the guaranteed issue and simplified administration of a group LTD plan.

Marketed through independent brokers and agents, benefit solutions also include short-term disability, group life and Accidental Death & Dismemberment plans. Access to Reliance Matrix’s patented HR technology tools and platform integrations, and a full suite of value-added services including Financial Wellness, Employee Assistance, 24-hour Travel Assistance, and Identity Theft Recovery services, will also be available.
