A nonprofit health service plan may NOT issue a contract that covers which of the following types of benefits?

A nonprofit health service plan is typically designed to provide specific health-related benefits and often focuses on managing healthcare delivery rather than providing cash benefits. Disability income benefits are financial benefits provided when an individual is unable to work due to a health issue, which falls outside the traditional scope of health services provided by a nonprofit health service plan.

Instead, nonprofit health service plans are generally structured to cover services like hospitalization, outpatient care, and preventive care, which are direct healthcare services aimed at improving the health and well-being of individuals. These plans focus on connectivity to health providers and ensuring access to medically necessary services rather than on financial compensation for lost wages due to disability. Thus, the correct choice reflects the limits of nonprofit health service plans in relation to the benefits they are authorized to provide.
