What is the capital insured in Temporary Disability and Permanent Disability?

The capital insured is calculated based on the average of the professional income for the last 3 years. 80% of this amount will define the maximum annual capital dedicated to the Temporary Incapacity coverage. Once the level of disability has been defined (no later than 24 months after the accident), if it is more than 50% the permanent disability benefit will be available. The amount of compensation for the Temporary Disability would be deducted from the capital for the Permanent Disability. The percentage of the Permanent Disability would be defined according to the table BOBI.
