Disability & Long-Term CareQuestion 492 of 716

A disability income policy that covers the insured only for injuries and sickness occurring away from the job is described as:

a.Twenty-four-hour coverage
b.Occupational coverage
c.Presumptive coverage
d.Nonoccupational coverage

Explanation

Nonoccupational coverage applies only to disabilities arising off the job, because on-the-job injuries and illnesses are generally handled by workers compensation. Occupational coverage would include both on- and off-the-job causes. Twenty-four-hour coverage combines occupational and nonoccupational protection into one plan. Presumptive disability refers to automatic total-disability status for certain severe losses. Group short-term and long-term disability plans are commonly written as nonoccupational to avoid overlapping with workers compensation.
