17 Free Oklahoma Life & Health Practice Questions: Health Providers and Products (2026)
How to Use This Health Providers and Products Set
Health Providers and Products is 15 of the 150 scored items on the combined Oklahoma exam and 20 of 100 on the Accident and Health or Sickness exam. It is where the exam moves from contract wording to the products themselves: major medical, limited-benefit plans such as hospital indemnity and credit disability, disability income, dental, and the managed-care organizations that deliver care.
Two points about Oklahoma's licensing language help here. The statutory name of the health line is Accident and health or sickness, and disability income benefits can sit within either the Life line or the Accident and health or sickness line of authority (36 O.S. §1435.8(A)(1)-(2)).
These 17 questions come from LanePrep's Oklahoma L&H quiz bank and follow three areas: limited-benefit and disability income products, disability riders with managed care and dental, and coordination of benefits with deductible arithmetic.
Do the arithmetic in the order the policy does. Deductible first, then coinsurance on what remains, then the out-of-pocket limit.
Practice Questions 1-6: Limited-Benefit and Disability Income Products
Per-day hospital benefits, a policy that pays the lender, who keeps the money, any-occupation against own-occupation, the elimination period and a terminated employee's conversion right.
Question 1 (Chapter 6)
John has a Hospital Indemnity policy that pays $200 per day of hospitalization. He is hospitalized for 5 days, and his total medical bill is $12,000. How much will the Hospital Indemnity policy pay directly to John?
- A) $12,000
- B) $200
- C) 80% of the total bill
- D) $1,000
Show answer & explanation
Answer: D
Hospital Indemnity policies pay a fixed dollar amount per day of confinement, regardless of the actual medical expenses incurred. 5 days multiplied by $200 per day equals $1,000.
Question 2 (Chapter 6)
A consumer takes out a $15,000 auto loan from an Oklahoma bank and purchases a Credit Disability policy. If the consumer becomes disabled, how are the benefits typically paid?
- A) The insurer pays a lump sum of $15,000 directly to the consumer.
- B) The insurer pays the monthly loan installments directly to the lender until the consumer recovers or the loan is paid off.
- C) The insurer pays for the consumer's medical bills and rehabilitation costs.
- D) The insurer pays the consumer's mortgage and utility bills.
Show answer & explanation
Answer: B
Credit Disability insurance is designed to cover a specific debt. If the insured becomes disabled, the policy pays the creditor (lender) to cover the loan payments.
Question 3 (Chapter 6)
Which of the following statements is true regarding Hospital Indemnity policies sold in Oklahoma?
- A) They pay benefits directly to the insured, who can use the money for any purpose.
- B) They are considered 'Minimum Essential Coverage' under federal law.
- C) They must provide the same benefits as a Major Medical plan.
- D) They are only available to individuals over the age of 65.
Show answer & explanation
Answer: A
Hospital Indemnity (or 'Hospital Income') policies pay a flat daily rate to the insured. The money belongs to the insured and can be used for medical bills, rent, or any other personal expense.
Question 4 (Chapter 6)
A Disability Income policy defines 'Total Disability' as the inability to perform the duties of 'Any Occupation' for which the insured is reasonably suited by education, training, or experience. This definition is:
- A) More restrictive (harder to qualify for) than an 'Own Occupation' definition.
- B) Less restrictive (easier to qualify for) than an 'Own Occupation' definition.
- C) Illegal under Oklahoma Insurance Code.
- D) Only applicable to Credit Disability policies.
Show answer & explanation
Answer: A
The 'Any Occupation' definition is stricter because the insured must be unable to work in any job they are qualified for. 'Own Occupation' only requires the insured to be unable to perform their specific current job.
Question 5 (Chapter 6)
In a Disability Income policy, the 'Elimination Period' functions most like which of the following in a Major Medical policy?
- A) A deductible.
- B) Coinsurance.
- C) An out-of-pocket maximum.
- D) A grace period.
Show answer & explanation
Answer: A
The elimination period is a time-based deductible. It is the period of time after a disability begins during which no benefits are paid. The longer the elimination period, the lower the premium.
Question 6 (Chapter 6)
An Oklahoma employee is terminated from her job and wishes to convert her group health coverage to an individual policy. According to standard group health provisions, how many days does she have to exercise this conversion privilege without proving insurability?
- A) 10 days
- B) 20 days
- C) 31 days
- D) 60 days
Show answer & explanation
Answer: C
Standard group health conversion provisions give a terminated employee 31 days after coverage ends to apply for an individual conversion policy, which is issued without proof of insurability, so no medical exam is required.

Practice Questions 7-12: Disability Riders, HMOs and Dental
A common accident deductible, a cost-of-living rider, when a waiver of premium starts, another hospital indemnity calculation, capitation and predetermination of dental benefits.
Question 7 (Chapter 6)
A family in Stillwater is involved in a car accident. Both the father and the daughter are hospitalized. Their Major Medical policy has a 'Common Accident Deductible.' How does this feature apply?
- A) Each family member must meet their own individual deductible separately.
- B) The deductible is waived entirely because the injuries were accidental.
- C) The insurer pays 100% of the claims, but only if the accident was caused by an uninsured motorist.
- D) Only one individual deductible must be satisfied for all family members injured in that single accident.
Show answer & explanation
Answer: D
The Common Accident Deductible provision states that if two or more family members are injured in the same accident, only one deductible applies, preventing the family from being financially overwhelmed by multiple deductibles for one event.
Question 8 (Chapter 6)
To protect against the eroding effects of inflation on the purchasing power of disability benefits, an Oklahoma consumer should add which rider to their Disability Income policy?
- A) Cost of Living Adjustment (COLA) Rider
- B) Guaranteed Insurability Rider
- C) Waiver of Premium Rider
- D) Return of Premium Rider
Show answer & explanation
Answer: A
A COLA rider automatically increases the monthly disability benefit, typically on an annual basis, once the insured is on claim, to keep pace with inflation (CPI).
Question 9 (Chapter 6)
An Oklahoma worker has a Disability Income policy with a 'Waiver of Premium' provision. If he becomes totally disabled, when will the insurer typically begin waiving his premiums?
- A) After a specified period of total disability (usually 90 days or 6 months).
- B) Immediately on the first day of disability.
- C) Only after he has exhausted all of his savings.
- D) Never; the insured must pay premiums as long as the policy is in force.
Show answer & explanation
Answer: A
The Waiver of Premium rider usually requires the insured to be totally disabled for a set period (the 'waiting period') before it kicks in. Once met, premiums are waived, and any premiums paid during the waiting period are typically refunded.
Question 10 (Chapter 6)
An Oklahoma resident, Mark, is covered by a 'Hospital Indemnity' policy that pays $150 per day. He is hospitalized for 4 days due to a severe respiratory infection. His total hospital bill is $8,000, and his Major Medical plan covers $6,000 of it. How much will the Hospital Indemnity policy pay?
- A) $600 (the daily benefit multiplied by the number of days)
- B) $8,000 (the full bill)
- C) $2,000 (the remaining balance after Major Medical)
- D) $0 (because the Major Medical plan already paid a portion)
Show answer & explanation
Answer: A
Hospital Indemnity policies are limited-benefit plans that pay a fixed dollar amount per day of hospitalization regardless of the actual expenses incurred or other insurance coverage. Since Mark was hospitalized for 4 days at a rate of $150/day, the policy pays $600 directly to him.
Question 11 (Chapter 6)
In an Oklahoma HMO, the 'Capitation' method of provider reimbursement means the doctor is paid:
- A) A fee for every individual service or procedure performed.
- B) A percentage of the HMO's annual profits.
- C) Only when the patient is successfully cured of their ailment.
- D) A fixed monthly fee for every HMO member assigned to them, regardless of whether the member is treated.
Show answer & explanation
Answer: D
Capitation is a 'per head' payment system. The HMO pays the provider a set amount each month for each member in their care. This shifts some of the financial risk to the provider to encourage efficient care.
Question 12 (Chapter 6)
A dental patient in Norman is told he needs a root canal. The dentist submits a 'Predetermination of Benefits' to the insurer. What is the purpose of this?
- A) To allow the insurer to notify the patient and dentist of what will be covered before the treatment begins.
- B) To guarantee that the dentist will perform the surgery for free.
- C) To legally bind the patient to only use that specific dentist for life.
- D) To bypass the policy's deductible.
Show answer & explanation
Answer: A
Predetermination (or Pre-estimation) of benefits allows both the provider and the patient to understand the financial responsibility (what the insurer pays vs. what the patient pays) before expensive dental work is performed.
Practice Questions 13-17: Coordination of Benefits, Deductibles and Networks
The birthday rule, a Life producer asked about disability income, deductible and coinsurance arithmetic, the PPO network incentive and a per-cause deductible.
Question 13 (Chapter 6)
A husband and wife in Edmond both have group health insurance through their employers. They have a daughter. The husband's birthday is October 12, and the wife's birthday is May 4. Under the 'Birthday Rule' for Coordination of Benefits (COB), whose plan is primary for the daughter?
- A) The husband's plan, because he is the father.
- B) The wife's plan, because her birthday occurs earlier in the calendar year.
- C) The plan of the parent who has been employed longer.
- D) Both plans pay 50% of every claim simultaneously.
Show answer & explanation
Answer: B
The Birthday Rule states that the primary plan for a dependent child is the plan of the parent whose birthday (month and day) falls earlier in the calendar year. May 4 comes before October 12.
Question 14 (Chapter 6)
A producer in Tulsa holds only a 'Life' line of authority. A client asks to purchase a standalone Disability Income policy to protect their paycheck. Based on 36 O.S. §1435.8, how should the producer proceed?
- A) The producer must refer the client to an Accident and Health or Sickness producer, as Life authority does not include disability benefits.
- B) The producer can sell the policy because the Life line of authority in Oklahoma explicitly includes disability income benefits.
- C) The producer can only sell the policy if it is attached as a rider to a permanent life insurance policy.
- D) The producer must obtain a temporary Accident and Health license from the OID before completing the application.
Show answer & explanation
Answer: B
Under Oklahoma Statute 36 O.S. §1435.8(A)(1), the Life line of authority is broad and explicitly includes 'benefits for disability income.' While the Accident and Health or Sickness line also includes disability (1435.8(A)(2)), a Life-only producer is legally authorized to sell disability income products in Oklahoma.
Question 15 (Chapter 6)
An insured in Enid has a Major Medical policy with a $500 deductible and an 80/20 coinsurance clause. They incur a $2,500 covered medical bill. This is their first claim of the year. What is the insured's total out-of-pocket cost?
- A) $500
- B) $900
- C) $1,000
- D) $400
Show answer & explanation
Answer: B
The insured first pays the $500 deductible ($2,500 - $500 = $2,000 remaining). Then, the insured pays 20% of the remaining $2,000, which is $400. Total out-of-pocket = $500 (deductible) + $400 (coinsurance) = $900.
Question 16 (Chapter 6)
In a Preferred Provider Organization (PPO) operating in Oklahoma, what is the primary incentive for an insured to stay 'in-network'?
- A) Out-of-network care is prohibited by law.
- B) In-network providers are the only ones allowed to perform surgery.
- C) The insurer pays a higher percentage of the bill (e.g., 90% vs 70%).
- D) The insured does not have to pay any premiums if they stay in-network.
Show answer & explanation
Answer: C
PPOs use financial incentives to encourage network use. While the insured has the freedom to go out-of-network, they will face higher deductibles and lower coinsurance percentages (meaning they pay more out-of-pocket).
Question 17 (Chapter 6)
A Major Medical policy in Oklahoma uses a 'Per-Cause' deductible rather than an 'Annual' deductible. The insured has a $500 deductible. If the insured is treated for a broken leg in February and then a respiratory infection in June, how much deductible must they pay?
- A) $500 total for the year.
- B) $1,000 ($500 for each separate condition).
- C) $0 for the second illness.
- D) $250 for each condition.
Show answer & explanation
Answer: B
A 'Per-Cause' deductible requires the insured to pay the deductible for each separate accident or illness. Since the leg and the infection are unrelated, the deductible applies to each.
The Mistakes That Cost Marks
Offsetting indemnity benefits against the bill. Hospital indemnity pays a fixed amount per day of hospitalization whatever the bill was and whatever other coverage paid, and it pays the insured, who can spend it on anything.
Reversing own-occupation and any-occupation. The any-occupation definition is stricter: you qualify only if you cannot do any job you are suited for. Own-occupation is easier to satisfy.
Forgetting what the elimination period is. It is a time-based deductible: no benefits are paid until it ends. A waiver of premium likewise starts only after a stated period of total disability.
Doing coinsurance before the deductible. With a $500 deductible and 80/20 coinsurance on a $2,500 covered bill, the insured pays $500, then 20% of the remaining $2,000, for $900 in all.
Using the older parent for the birthday rule. The primary plan for a child is the plan of the parent whose birthday (month and day) falls earlier in the calendar year, not the older parent. And a per-cause deductible applies to each separate accident or illness, while a common accident deductible means one deductible for everyone hurt in the same accident.
