A client has a new individual disability income policy with a
20-day probationary period and a 30-day elimination
period. Ten days later, the client breaks their leg and is off
work for 45 days. How many days of disability benefits will
the policy pay?
a)10 days
b)15 days
c)25 days
d)45 daysCorrect Answer b)15 days
A probationary period refers to the amount of time that
coverage is not available for illness-related disabilities, so
it would not apply to a broken leg. The elimination period,
however, is the time that must elapse between the onset
of the disability and when benefits will start being paid. In
this case, the individual is considered disabled for 45
days, and the benefits will start to be paid after 30 days.
So, the client will receive benefits for 15 days.

they will adjust the benefit being paid. It doesn't matter
when the mistake was found.

b)"Own occupation" - less restrictive than other definitions
c)"Own occupation" - more restrictive than other definitions
d)"Any occupation" - less restrictive than other
definitionsCorrect Answer b)"Own occupation" - less
restrictive than other definitions
In theory, the brain surgeon could find other work, but
because her disability income policy specifies that she is
covered for her own occupation, she would be wholly
covered.

of the contract.
