Loss of Speech Sample Clauses
The Loss of Speech clause defines the conditions under which a loss of the ability to speak is recognized as a covered event, typically for insurance or disability purposes. It usually specifies that the loss must be total and permanent, and may require medical certification or a minimum duration of impairment before benefits are payable. This clause ensures that claimants and providers have a clear standard for when compensation or coverage is triggered, thereby preventing disputes and clarifying eligibility in cases of speech loss.
