A loss event is an unexpected event that results in damage to property or health.
The sum insured is the insurable value of the insured object or the maximum monetary amount to the extent of which LHV shall indemnify the damage caused due to the insured event. LHV shall not compensate more than the sum insured specified in the terms and conditions for all insured events of the same trip combined. The amounts are per insured person.
The indemnity limit is the maximum amount of money to which LHV shall compensate the damage caused as a result of an insured event.

The indemnity limit is not added to the sum insured, but is included in it.
The insurance deductible is the amount borne by the Insured Person in the event of an insured event. The insurance deductible is deducted from the insurance benefit payable.

The permanent disability indemnity is paid as a percentage of the sum insured for the accident, based on the condition of the insured person one (1) year after the occurrence of the insured event.
  - The permanent disability benefit is 25% of the insured sum of the insured event, if one (1) year after the insured event the insured person generally does not require outside help, but his/her general ability has decreased: he/she has memory impairment, speech and communication difficulties, loss of movement accuracy, imbalance, rapid fatigue and other conditions aggravating or obstructing everyday activities.
  - The permanent disability indemnity is 50% of the insured sum of the insurance event if, one (1) year after the insured event, the insured person is only able to perform light and short-term activities, his/her ability is significantly reduced and he/she is dependent on the assistance of another person for some daily activities (such as eating, washing, dressing, movement inside or outside the home, etc.).

5. A permanent disability is determined by comparing the insured person’s state of health with that of a healthy person of the same age, taking into account only the severity and nature of the disability and not the insured person’s individual characteristics, such as lifestyle, occupation or hobbies. Loss of capacity for work and loss of income are not accounted for when establishing permanent disability. The degree of severity of the permanent disability established by expert medical assessment is not binding for LHV in establishing the permanent disability.
