LLQP Accident & Sickness · Component 3.3 · 25% of the exam
At delivery the agent should explain the A&S policy's claim procedure because:
- AClaims cannot be submitted unless the agent countersigns the forms on the client's behalf
- BThe client must waive the right to claim before the policy can be placed in force
- CThe insurer requires the agent to certify that the client can complete the claim forms unaided
- A claimant who misses the notice or proof deadlines can have benefits reduced or refused
Correct answer: D) A claimant who misses the notice or proof deadlines can have benefits reduced or refused
The statutory conditions set time limits for notice and proof of loss, and a client who learns about them only at claim time may already be outside them.
Why the other options are wrong
- AClaimants submit their own forms; the agent assists.
- BNo waiver of the right to claim exists or could be valid.
- CNo certification of the client's competence is required.
Exam tip
Explain notice and proof deadlines at delivery, not at claim.
Common mistake
Delivering a policy without walking through how a claim is made.
