Page 1 of 67
,Medical Information Bureau (MIB) members must report which of the following:
ALife insurance death claims
BHealth conditions discovered during the underwriting process
CInsurance company actions taken
DAdverse underwriting decisions - Answer: B
Explanation:
The MIB is a non-profit information agency formed to assist health insurers
uncover misrepresentations or fraudulent actions by applicants for insurance. MIB
members that find an impairment in underwriting report such findings, as well as
situations which applicants have previously been involved in and information
received from physicians or other persons commenting on the status of a
proposed insured.
Question #90460
If a $100,000 Whole Life insurance policy with a cash value of $10,500 lapsed and
the insured selected the reduced paid-up non-forfeiture option, all of the
following would be true EXCEPT:
AThe new policy would have a cash value
BThe new policy would have a face amount of $100,000
CThe new policy would not require proof of insurability
DThe new policy would provide coverage to age 100 - Answer: B
Explanation:
If the insured selects the reduced-paid up non-forfeiture option, the insurer will
use the cash value in the lapsed policy to buy the insured a new Whole life policy
at the insured's current age without evidence of insurability. The new policy will
be paid-up until age 100 or the insured's death, whichever comes first, and will

,have an immediate cash value. However, $10,500 would not be enough to buy the
insured a $100,000 policy, so coverage will be reduced.

actions by applicants. MIB member companies that find health impairments in
