Short-term group disability income insurance:

  1. Usually provides benefits expressed as a percentage of the insured's normal weekly wage, up to a specified weekly maximum
  2. Usually coordinates the amount of benefits paid with disability benefits received under Social Security
  3. Often has a benefit period extending up to a maximum of ten years
  4. Frequently provides coverage through age 65 for insureds who are over 55 when they become disabled

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

Virginia exam materials describe standard STD plan design as wage-replacement for a short duration with a weekly cap; integration with Social Security and multi-year benefit periods are characteristics of long-term disability (LTD), not STD. Exact extract (Study Guide): "Short-Term Disability (STD) pays weekly benefits, typically 50%­60% of earnings, subject to a weekly maximum, for a short duration (commonly up to 13­26 weeks)." "Coordination with Social Security benefits is generally a feature of LTD, not STD."

In disability income insurance, when it can be shown that an individual would NOT suffer a substantial loss of income upon becoming disabled, an insurer will usually:

  1. Issue coverage at a standard rate
  2. Issue coverage at a preferred rate
  3. Issue coverage at a minimum rate
  4. Decline to issue coverage

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

Disability income insurance requires insurable interest based on potential income loss. If no substantial loss would occur, underwriting guidelines permit the insurer to decline coverage.
