Loss of Independent Existence Sample Clauses

The 'Loss of Independent Existence' clause defines the circumstances under which an individual is considered to have lost the ability to live independently, typically due to severe physical or cognitive impairment. This clause often outlines specific criteria, such as the inability to perform basic activities of daily living (like bathing, dressing, or feeding oneself) without substantial assistance. Its core practical function is to establish a clear standard for triggering benefits or obligations under insurance or care agreements, ensuring that support is provided when a person can no longer function independently.
