Question juridique clé
Whether the insured remained entitled to daily sickness benefits after 31 July 2006
Solution extraite
The benefit cutoff could not be upheld on the existing findings because the insurer had granted only a 17-day adaptation period, which was manifestly insufficient; entitlement may continue for an additional adaptation period.
Motifs extraits
Before stopping benefits on the ground that the insured should change occupation or seek unemployment benefits, the insurer had to give written warning and a reasonable time to adapt. The lower court’s period was too short.
