Sample questions & answers

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

A waiting period after a disability begins before benefits are payable

The elimination period is a deductible measured in time during which no disability benefits are paid after disability begins.

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

The maximum length of time benefits will be paid for a disability

The benefit period sets the maximum length of time the policy will pay benefits for a covered disability.

3. An 'own occupation' definition of total disability is generally more favorable to the insured because it pays when the insured cannot:

Perform the duties of their own occupation

An own-occupation definition pays if the insured cannot perform their own occupation, even if able to do other work.

4. A residual disability benefit is designed to pay when the insured:

Returns to work but suffers a loss of income due to the disability

A residual benefit pays a partial amount based on the income loss when a partially disabled insured returns to work.
