Sample questions & answers

1. During a covered period of disability, Louisiana requires the insurer to make disability income payments to the insured at least every:

30 days

R.S. 22:1821 requires payment at least every thirty days during the part of the disability period for which the insured is entitled to payments.

2. Louisiana law does NOT allow a disability income policy to define total disability solely as the inability to perform:

"Any occupation whatsoever"

R.S. 22:990(B) bars basing total disability solely on inability to perform "any occupation whatsoever," "any occupational duty," or "any and every duty of his occupation."

3. A general Louisiana definition of total disability may be no more restrictive than inability to work in any occupation for which the insured is qualified by education, training, or experience and that provides:

Substantially the same earnings

R.S. 22:990(C) sets this floor: inability to engage in any occupation for which the insured is qualified that provides substantially the same earning capacity as before.

4. May a Louisiana disability income policy define disability as the complete inability to perform all the substantial and material duties of the insured's regular occupation?

Yes, the statute expressly allows it

R.S. 22:990(D) allows the insurer to specify the complete inability to perform all of the substantial and material duties of the regular occupation.
