Q4 • Social Insurancemedium

The Quick Disability Determination (QDD) process at SSA is designed to:

AProvide instant cash benefits to the claimant during the initial five-month statutory waiting period before any decision.
BUse a predictive model to identify claims with a high likelihood of allowance for expedited DDS processing.
CBypass the medical evidence requirement entirely for any impairment that is expected to be short-term in its duration.
DReplace administrative law judge hearings with binding private arbitration proceedings conducted outside the agency.
Why

QDD uses a predictive computer model to flag likely-allowance claims for fast DDS handling, separate from the condition-based CAL list.

Q5 • Life Policy Typeseasy

A 30-year decreasing term policy is sold as mortgage protection on a 30-year amortizing home loan. Across the policy's life, the:

APremium decreases each year on a set declining schedule while the death benefit stays level at the original face for the full 30-year term
BPremium stays level while the death benefit decreases on a schedule designed to track the declining mortgage balance
CPremium and death benefit both increase each year, indexed upward together to keep pace with general consumer price inflation over the term
DPremium and death benefit both decrease each year proportionally and in lockstep over the entire 30-year policy term
Why

Decreasing term: level premium, declining death benefit tracking mortgage amortization. Premium is flat throughout.
