Idaho Statutes Title 41. Insurance § 41-2213. Policy standards--Disabled individuals

(1) In the case of a policy providing benefits for loss of time or a specific indemnity during hospital confinement, the extension of benefits provision will be deemed reasonable if continuance does not affect the benefit provided.

(2) In the case of a policy providing hospital, medical or surgical expense coverage, the extension of benefits provision will be deemed reasonable if it provides benefits for covered expenses incurred as the result of the disabling condition beyond the date of discontinuance for a period of not less than twelve (12) months.

(3) In the case of a policy providing loss by dismemberment, the extension of benefits provision will be deemed reasonable if it provides benefits for dismemberment loss that occurs after termination of policy that was a result of a disabling condition that occurred while the policy was in effect. Benefits for any such loss will be payable under the policy, in accordance with its limitations, exceptions and provisions as if this policy had not been so terminated.

The benefits payable during any extension of benefits may be subject to all limitations or restrictions contained in the policy. Any extension of benefits may be terminated at such time as the employee or dependent is no longer totally disabled.
