Summary
This podcast is made by Ran Chen, who holds an EA license, Insurance and Securities licenses (Series 6, 63, 65), and the CFP® designation. He is passionate about opening access to high-quality exam preparation resources and helping learners prepare more effectively for professional certification exams. In this episode you will learn: - That claim benefits are paid to the insured, their assignee (like a hospital), or a beneficiary. - The 'facility of payment' clause allows insurers to make small, immediate payments to a relative for final expenses. - Insurers have the right to require a physical exam of the insured while a claim is pending. - The insurer is always responsible for the cost of any physical exam or autopsy they require. - An autopsy can be performed at the insurer's expense unless it is prohibited by state law.
