Sample questions & answers

1. The elimination period in a disability income policy is:

A waiting period before benefits begin

The elimination period is the time between the start of disability and the start of benefit payments; longer periods lower the premium.

2. The benefit period in a disability income policy refers to:

How long benefits are paid

The benefit period is the maximum length of time benefits will be paid for a covered disability.

3. An 'own-occupation' definition of total disability generally pays if the insured cannot:

Perform the duties of their own occupation

Own-occupation coverage pays when the insured cannot perform the duties of their specific occupation, a broader (more favorable) definition.

4. An 'any-occupation' definition of total disability is generally:

More restrictive than own-occupation

Any-occupation requires inability to perform any job for which the insured is reasonably suited, a stricter (less favorable) standard.
