Unlike Original Medicare, a Medicare Advantage (Part C) plan must include:

  1. An annual out-of-pocket maximum ✓
  2. Coverage with no provider network at all
  3. Free long-term custodial nursing care
  4. A guaranteed cash rebate each year

Why: Medicare Advantage plans must cap annual out-of-pocket costs for Part A and B services; Original Medicare has no such maximum.

A licensed agent moves his legal residence from Georgia to another state. Under Code Section 33-23-16(c), he must file a change of address and provide certification from the new home state within:

  1. 10 days of the change
  2. 15 days of the change
  3. 30 days of the change ✓
  4. 60 days of the change

Why: O.C.G.A. § 33-23-16(c) requires a nonresident or resident agent who moves to file a change of address and provide certification from the new resident home state within 30 days of the change in legal residence; no fee or application is required.

Which type of life insurance provides lifelong coverage with a level premium and a guaranteed cash value?

  1. Annually renewable term
  2. Whole (ordinary) life ✓
  3. Level term to age 65
  4. Credit life

Why: Whole life is permanent coverage with a level premium and a guaranteed, tax-deferred cash value. Term provides only temporary coverage with no cash value.

Is an attorney admitted to practice in Georgia treated as an 'agent' when collecting premiums incidental to the practice of law?

  1. Yes, any premium collection requires an agent's license
  2. No, such an attorney is excluded from the definitions of agent, subagent, and counselor for that incidental activity ✓
  3. Yes, unless the attorney also holds a counselor's license
  4. No, but only if the attorney first registers with the Commissioner unless an exception clearly applies for the coverage that is in force

Why: O.C.G.A. § 33-23-1(b)(1) excludes from agent, subagent, and counselor an attorney at law admitted in this state when handling premium collections or advising clients about insurance incidental to the practice of law.

An insured dies in the third policy year and the insurer discovers a non-fraudulent misstatement on the application. The insurer must:

  1. Pay the claim, because the contestable period has passed ✓
  2. Deny the claim and refund the premiums paid to date
  3. Reduce the death benefit by one half as a penalty
  4. Void the policy back to its original issue date

Why: After the two-year contestable period, the insurer cannot contest the policy for non-fraudulent misstatements, so the claim is paid.

The HIPAA Privacy Rule primarily protects:

  1. Individuals' protected health information from improper disclosure ✓
  2. Insurers from having to pay disputed claims
  3. Producers from errors-and-omissions lawsuits under the policy's terms
  4. Employers from paying group premiums

Why: HIPAA's Privacy Rule safeguards protected health information (PHI), generally requiring authorization before disclosure.

A health reimbursement arrangement (HRA) differs from a health savings account (HSA) in that an HRA is:

  1. Owned by the employee and fully portable between jobs
  2. Funded solely by the employer, who sets the terms ✓
  3. Available only to people enrolled in a high-deductible plan
  4. Always paired with a flexible spending account by law

Why: An HRA is employer-funded and employer-owned (not portable); an HSA is owned by the individual and requires a qualified HDHP.

Money left in a typical health flexible spending account (FSA) at year-end is:

  1. Generally forfeited under the use-it-or-lose-it rule ✓
  2. Always rolled over indefinitely with no limit
  3. Paid out to the employee as taxable cash
  4. Transferred automatically into the employee's HSA

Why: FSAs are generally use-it-or-lose-it, though plans may allow a limited carryover or grace period.

A 52-year-old withdraws $8,000 of gain from a nonqualified annuity. The IRS penalty (besides income tax) is:

  1. $800 ✓
  2. $1,600
  3. $400
  4. $0

Why: Premature distributions before 59½ incur a 10% penalty: 10% × $8,000 = $800.

Survivorship (second-to-die) life insurance is most commonly used to:

  1. Provide estate liquidity after the second insured dies ✓
  2. Replace the income of a sole wage earner who has several young children at home
  3. Cover a short-term business loan that must be fully repaid within five years
  4. Fund a child's future college costs through the policy's accumulated cash value

Why: It pays at the second death and is widely used to fund estate taxes and costs.

An investor with no relationship to the insured arranges and funds a policy intending to profit from the death benefit. This is:

  1. Stranger-originated life insurance (STOLI), which is illegal ✓
  2. A permissible viatical settlement in that particular circumstance
  3. A standard key person arrangement
  4. An ordinary collateral assignment

Why: STOLI lacks insurable interest and is illegal; policies must be founded on a genuine insurable interest at inception.

Under a universal life policy's Option A (Option 1), the death benefit is:

  1. Level, while the cash value grows inside it ✓
  2. Equal to the face amount plus the entire accumulated cash value at all times
  3. Reduced each year by the amount of interest the policy earns
  4. Tied directly to the performance of a chosen stock-market index

Why: Option A keeps a level death benefit (cash value accumulates within it); Option B pays the face amount plus the cash value, so it increases.

Because an insurance policy is drafted entirely by the insurer and the applicant simply accepts it, it is legally a contract of:

  1. Adhesion ✓
  2. Aleatory exchange, in which the dollar amounts traded by the parties are unequal
  3. Indemnity
  4. Warranty

Why: A contract of adhesion is written by one party and offered on a take-it-or-leave-it basis, so ambiguities are construed against the drafter (the insurer).

A SIMPLE IRA retirement plan is intended for:

  1. Small employers, with employee salary deferrals and an employer match ✓
  2. Large corporations with thousands of unionized employees
  3. Self-employed individuals who have no employees at all
  4. Government workers who are not covered by Social Security

Why: A SIMPLE IRA is for small employers (generally up to 100 employees) and combines employee salary-reduction contributions with required employer contributions.

A temporary insurance license is most commonly issued to:

  1. Continue the business of a producer who died or became disabled ✓
  2. Anyone who has not yet taken the licensing exam in most situations
  3. Replace continuing-education requirements
  4. Allow unlimited sales for one year

Why: Temporary licenses (no exam) let someone service an existing book when a producer dies, becomes disabled, or enters military service.

The 'actively-at-work' provision in a group plan requires that, for coverage to take effect, the employee must:

  1. Be performing their normal job duties on the effective date ✓
  2. Have completed at least ten years of continuous service first
  3. Pass an individual paramedical examination before enrollment
  4. Waive all rights to convert the coverage in the future

Why: The actively-at-work provision conditions coverage on the employee being at work (not home ill) on the date it would otherwise begin.

Regarding examinations, which limitation does the statute place on the Commissioner's authority to grant exemptions?

  1. The Commissioner may exempt only nonresident applicants
  2. The Commissioner may not, under any circumstances, exempt himself or herself from any written examination requirement ✓
  3. The Commissioner may exempt any applicant with a college degree unless an exception clearly applies for the coverage that is in force
  4. The Commissioner may waive examinations only for adjusters

Why: O.C.G.A. § 33-23-10(b)(2) provides that the Commissioner shall not, under any circumstances, exempt himself or herself from any written examination requirement set forth in the Code section.

In group insurance underwriting, the insurer primarily evaluates:

  1. Each individual member's detailed personal medical history
  2. The characteristics and risk of the group taken as a whole ✓
  3. Only the health of the employer's executive leadership team
  4. The credit score of every employee covered by the plan

Why: Group underwriting assesses the group as a unit (size, industry, turnover, purpose), not each member individually.

A major medical plan has a $500 deductible and 80/20 coinsurance. On a $5,500 covered bill, how much does the insured pay?

  1. $1,500 ✓
  2. $1,100
  3. $1,000
  4. $500

Why: Insured pays the $500 deductible, then 20% of the remaining $5,000 = $1,000, for a total of $1,500.

An Explanation of Benefits (EOB) sent to an insured is:

  1. A statement showing what the plan paid and what the insured owes ✓
  2. A bill the insured must pay before any care is delivered
  3. The legally binding insurance contract between the parties
  4. A government form used to enroll in a new health plan

Why: An EOB is not a bill; it itemizes the charge, the plan's allowed amount, what the plan paid, and the patient's remaining responsibility.

A family income policy combines whole life with:

  1. Decreasing term that pays a monthly income through the end of the period ✓
  2. A separate variable account invested in the insurer's stock portfolio
  3. An annuity that begins paying the children at their age of majority
  4. Level term coverage that automatically increases with inflation each year

Why: A family income policy adds decreasing term to whole life; if the insured dies during the period, it pays monthly income to the end of the period, then the face amount.

An adjuster who represents the interest of the insurer but is NOT an employee of that insurer is statutorily classified as a/an:

  1. Public adjuster
  2. Independent adjuster ✓
  3. Staff adjuster
  4. Counselor

Why: O.C.G.A. § 33-23-1(a)(8) defines an 'independent adjuster' as an adjuster representing the interest of the insurer who is not an employee of such insurer.

A holder of a temporary license issued under Code Section 33-23-13(a) is authorized to do all of the following EXCEPT:

  1. Negotiate renewal policies
  2. Receive and collect premiums
  3. Perform acts necessary to continue the particular insurance business
  4. Sell, solicit, or negotiate new insurance accounts ✓

Why: O.C.G.A. § 33-23-13(d) authorizes negotiation of renewals, receipt and collection of premiums, and acts necessary to continuance, but expressly does NOT authorize the holder to sell, solicit, or negotiate new insurance accounts.

Federal law (IRC 101(j)) generally requires that, for employer-owned life insurance death proceeds to remain tax-free, the employer must:

  1. Notify the employee and obtain consent before issue ✓
  2. Pay the employee a cash bonus equal to the death benefit
  3. Limit the coverage to highly compensated executives only
  4. Surrender the policy if the employee ever changes jobs

Why: For employer-owned (COLI/BOLI) policies, the insured employee must be notified and consent in writing before issue, or the death benefit above basis becomes taxable.

Social Security disability benefits use a strict 'any occupation' definition and require a waiting period of:

  1. 1 month
  2. 3 months
  3. 5 months ✓
  4. 12 months

Why: SSDI uses a strict any-occupation definition and has a 5-month elimination period before benefits begin.

To meet Georgia's residency qualification, an individual applicant must be a resident who resides and is present within the state for at least:

  1. Three months of every year
  2. Six months of every year ✓
  3. Nine months of every year
  4. The entire calendar year

Why: O.C.G.A. § 33-23-5(a)(1) requires that the applicant be a resident who shall reside and be present within this state for at least six months of every year, or whose principal place of business is within this state.

An insured with a $4,000 monthly benefit suffers a residual disability causing a 50% loss of income. The residual benefit is about:

  1. $2,000 ✓
  2. $4,000
  3. $1,000
  4. $0

Why: Residual benefits are proportional to income lost: 50% income loss × $4,000 = $2,000.

A 'market conduct' examination by regulators reviews an insurer's:

  1. Sales, underwriting, and claims practices ✓
  2. Investment portfolio returns only
  3. Executive compensation packages
  4. Reinsurance treaties exclusively

Why: Market conduct exams assess how an insurer treats consumers — marketing, underwriting, policyholder service, and claims handling.

An agent binding an insurer to a risk the company did not intend to cover is an example of which type of authority?

  1. Apparent authority ✓
  2. Express authority granted explicitly in the agency contract
  3. Implied authority needed to carry out expressly granted duties
  4. Fiduciary authority arising from handling client premium funds

Why: Apparent authority is the appearance of authority a reasonable client perceives; express and implied are actually granted, so the distractors describe legitimate authority.

Concurrent utilization review in a managed-care plan assesses:

  1. Whether continued care is necessary while a patient is being treated ✓
  2. The premium rate the plan will charge an employer group
  3. The producer's commission on each policy that is sold
  4. Which providers are willing to accept a capitation payment

Why: Concurrent review evaluates the necessity and appropriateness of care during treatment (e.g., an ongoing hospital stay); prospective review occurs before, retrospective after.
