LLQP Accident & Sickness · Component 2.2 · 30% of the exam
A 'return of premium on death' rider on an LTC policy:
- ADoubles the daily care benefit if the insured dies within the first year of an LTC claim
- Refunds premiums paid, less benefits received, if the insured dies, often only before a stated age
- CIs included at no cost because the insurer keeps the premiums of insureds who never make a claim
- DPays the remaining pool of LTC benefits to the insured's estate as a lump sum at death
Correct answer: B) Refunds premiums paid, less benefits received, if the insured dies, often only before a stated age
Like CI ROP on death, it answers the 'wasted premium' objection. Restrictions by age are common.
Why the other options are wrong
- AThe rider refunds premiums paid; it does not increase the care benefit.
- CReturn-of-premium riders always carry an additional premium.
- DLTC benefits are for care while living.
Exam tip
LTC ROP on death: refund net of benefits, often age-limited.
Common mistake
Overlooking the age limit on the refund.
