Rina has a three$-$condition critical illness $($CI$)$ policy that includes a second event rider. She suffered a stroke and received a $$100,000$ payout. Four years later, she required coronary heart bypass surgery, which involved a lengthy recovery. How will the second claim be handled?

A

The doctor's report would have to indicate that it is not related to the first condition to receive any benefit.

B

It is not a covered condition, so the benefit will be denied.

C

The second benefit will be paid, but it will be for a reduced amount.

D

A second benefit will not be paid because it is not a recurring illness.
