Section 22315 Of Article 3. Loan Regulations From California Financial Code >> Division 9. >> Chapter 2. >> Article 3.
22315
. (a) Credit disability insurance written pursuant to Section
22314 shall not provide indemnity against the risk that the borrower
will become disabled for a period of less than 14 days. The insurance
may provide indemnity for any single period of continuous disability
of 14 days or longer, after which the risk may become compensable.
The insurance may be offered with retroactive coverage to an earlier
date based upon the disability having continued for a period stated
in the policy, but if insurance with retroactive coverage is offered,
it shall also be offered without retroactive coverage, and the
premium rate for each coverage shall be separately stated in writing
to the borrower.
(b) If insurance with retroactive coverage is provided, the coverage shall provide for a prorated payment based upon the fraction of the month during which the insured is disabled, provided that the insured is continuously disabled during the waiting period set forth in the policy. If insurance without retroactive coverage is provided, the coverage shall provide for a prorated payment based upon the fraction of the month during which the insured is disabled, after first excluding the elimination period set forth in the policy. For the purpose of this subdivision, a month is any period of 30 consecutive days.
(c) Credit disability insurance, if made available by a licensee, shall be available on a monthly or annual premium basis, and the premium by the month shall not exceed a pro rata relationship to the annual premium. Credit disability insurance need not be offered for a period less than the term of the loan to which it is applicable, and no credit disability insurance shall be written for a period in excess of the term of the loan to which it is applicable.
(d) The monthly disability benefit payable with respect to an open-end loan shall not exceed the monthly payment computed pursuant to Section 22453 on the outstanding balance at the time disability is incurred. This section does not apply to any loan of a bona fide principal amount of ten thousand dollars ($10,000) or more, as determined in accordance with Section 22251.
(b) If insurance with retroactive coverage is provided, the coverage shall provide for a prorated payment based upon the fraction of the month during which the insured is disabled, provided that the insured is continuously disabled during the waiting period set forth in the policy. If insurance without retroactive coverage is provided, the coverage shall provide for a prorated payment based upon the fraction of the month during which the insured is disabled, after first excluding the elimination period set forth in the policy. For the purpose of this subdivision, a month is any period of 30 consecutive days.
(c) Credit disability insurance, if made available by a licensee, shall be available on a monthly or annual premium basis, and the premium by the month shall not exceed a pro rata relationship to the annual premium.
