PARTIAL DISABILITY BRIDGING BENEFIT
18
We will pay You a Partial Disability Bridging Benefit if: • You have been receiving a Total Disability Benefit under this Policy ; and • the Life Assured is no longer Totally Disabled ; and • based on the information provided to, and requested by Us , We reasonably expect that a Partial Disability Benefit (as set out in Section C) will be payable for that Life Assured for the first month after the Life Assured ceased to be Totally Disabled . The Partial Disability Bridging Benefit is a lump-sum payment equivalent to 1/3rd (33.3%) of the final monthly Total Disability Benefit paid before the Life Assured ceased to be Totally Disabled . The Partial Disability Bridging Benefit is paid at the end of the final month in respect of which a Total Disability Benefit was claimed for by the Life Assured . Payment of the Partial Disability Bridging Benefit does not affect the amount of the Partial Disability Benefit (as set out in Section C). The Partial Disability Bridging Benefit is payable once for all claims resulting from the same or a related injury or illness.
The Partial Disability Bridging Benefit is not payable where a lump sum payment has been made in lieu of monthly benefit payments, as set out in Section C.
