The amount of income you could receive in addition to Social Security benefits will depend on the type of benefit your Disability insurance coverage provides. Some benefits will offset with all Social Security benefits you qualify for, which essentially means the additional income you receive will be equal to the difference of your monthly benefit and your Social Security benefits.
$5,000 Disability insurance benefit (off-settable)
$1,000 Social Security benefit
You will receive a net $4,000 of additional income and a total of $5,000.
There is also a benefit called "base" benefit, which does not offset with Social Security benefits. In this scenario the additional income you will receive is equal to your entire Disability insurance benefit.
$5,000 Disability insurance benefit (not off-settable)
$1,000 Social Security benefit
You will receive a net $5,000 of additional income and a total of $6,000.
