According to Sara Stein, Senior Vice President, Group Member Programs, “NAPA has a strong history of providing valuable insurance and non-insurance benefits to members.

Disability insurance is especially valuable because, without it, personal and business expenses can quickly deplete an agent’s assets, which can cause severe financial stress.”

Stein added, “Having a reputable, financially sound insurance company is essential for disabled insurance agents. No one wants to buy insurance only to find out later that the company can’t cover its claims. NAPA selected MetLife as a partner because of its long history as a market leader.”

The program’s underwriter is MetLife, Inc., a leading global provider of insurance, annuities and employee benefit programs.
