Key legal question
Entitlement to daily sickness benefits beyond 2012-03-02
Extracted holding
No entitlement beyond 2012-03-02 because the claimant would no longer have been entitled to unemployment benefits and therefore suffered no compensable loss of earnings.
Extracted reasoning
Under Art. 73 LAMal and the insurer’s conditions, daily benefits require a loss of earnings. The cantonal findings bound the Federal Court: without illness, unemployment benefits would have ended on 2012-03-02, and no sufficiently probable prospect of taking up work was shown.
