Ohio life and health insurance exam sample questions and answers
6 of the 150 practice questions, one from each topic, with the answer explained.
1. A newly licensed Ohio life agent wants to sell fixed annuities. Before selling any annuity, the agent must complete:
- A.A FINRA securities exam
- B.A one-time four-credit course
- C.A yearly eight-credit course
- D.A 24-hour annuity course
Answer: B. OAC 3901-6-13(G)(2) requires a one-time annuity training course of at least four CE credits from an approved provider, and a new life licensee may not sell annuities until it is done. Securities registration is needed only for variable annuities.
2. An applicant pays the first premium with the application and gets a conditional receipt. She dies after the medical exam but before policy issue, and she was insurable. The insurer:
- A.Refunds the premium only
- B.Pays half the face amount
- C.Denies the claim since no policy issued
- D.Pays the death benefit
Answer: D. Under a conditional receipt, coverage begins on the later of the application or medical exam date if the applicant proves insurable as applied for, so the claim is paid. A binding receipt, by contrast, gives temporary coverage immediately for a limited period whether or not the applicant is later found insurable.
3. Under Ohio law, the organizations commonly called HMOs are licensed and regulated as:
- A.Health insuring corporations
- B.Mutual benefit associations
- C.Health care cooperatives
- D.Fraternal benefit societies
Answer: A. Ohio Revised Code Chapter 1751 regulates health insuring corporations, the Ohio term for HMO-type plans that combine financing and delivery of care through a provider network. The PSI outline lists them as health insuring corporations, formerly known as HMOs.
4. To qualify for Ohio's state continuation of group health coverage, a terminated employee must have been insured for at least:
- A.Six months before termination
- B.One year before termination
- C.Three months before termination
- D.One month before termination
Answer: C. ORC 3923.38(A)(2) defines an eligible employee as one continuously insured for the entire three months before termination, who did not quit or get fired for gross misconduct and is not eligible for Medicare or other group coverage.
5. An Ohio long-term care policy may not be canceled or nonrenewed because of the insured's:
- A.Written request
- B.Unpaid premium
- C.Age or declining health
- D.Fraud on the application
Answer: C. ORC 3923.44(B)(1) bars cancellation, nonrenewal or termination of a long-term care policy on the grounds of the insured's age or the deterioration of mental or physical health. Nonpayment, fraud and the insured's own request remain valid reasons.
6. A life policy has no 10-day unconditional refund provision and no illustration is used. Under Ohio rules, the buyer's guide and policy summary must be given:
- A.Before taking the first premium
- B.When the policy is delivered
- C.Within 30 days of policy issue
- D.Only if the applicant asks
Answer: A. OAC 3901-6-03(E)(1) makes the insurer give the buyer's guide and a policy summary before accepting the initial premium. Delivery with the policy is allowed only when the policy has an unconditional refund provision of at least ten days.
