1. What is the purpose of a 'life care plan' in serious injury claims?
To outline and project costs for all future medical and care needs of a catastrophically injured person

A life care plan, prepared by a certified specialist, documents all projected future medical, rehabilitative, and personal care needs along with their projected costs for catastrophically injured claimants.

Department of Insurance

Each state’s Department of Insurance oversees licensing, compliance, and consumer protection.

3. In an auto claim, 'diminished value' refers to:
The reduction in a vehicle's market value after being repaired following an accident

Diminished value is the difference between a vehicle's pre-accident market value and its post-repair market value, since a repaired vehicle often sells for less.

4. Under a personal auto policy, 'uninsured motorist coverage' protects the insured when:
A not-at-fault insured is injured by a driver who has no liability insurance

Uninsured motorist (UM) coverage pays for the insured's bodily injury or property damage caused by a driver who carries no liability insurance.

5. What is a 'scheduled loss of use' award in workers' compensation?
A lump sum payment for permanent impairment to a specific body part based on a statutory schedule

Many states use a statutory schedule assigning a fixed number of weeks' compensation for permanent loss of function to specific body parts.

6. A workers' compensation adjuster receives a claim for a cumulative trauma disorder. What is the key question to establish compensability?
Whether the condition arose out of and in the course of employment due to work activities

For cumulative trauma claims, the adjuster must determine whether repetitive work activities were a contributing cause of the condition, satisfying the 'arising out of employment' standard.
