Sec. 116.704. - Life insurance for emergency preparedness police officers.

The Chief, Emergency Preparedness is authorized to procure insurance benefits in the form of a master policy insuring the Jacksonville emergency preparedness police officers who are qualified auxiliary police officers as defined by F.S. § 943.10. Such insurance policy shall provide for the payment of the benefits thereby provided for in case of the death of the auxiliary police officer or his bodily injury which results in his death within 180 days after the injury, only if the death or fatal injury was suffered or occurred in the line of duty as an auxiliary police officer; provided, that death is not the result of suicide and that bodily injury is not intentionally self-inflicted. The benefits provided for in the insurance policy shall, as nearly as possible, be the same as the benefits provided to regular police officers under like circumstances. If a person is eligible for insurance under this Section and Section 116.703 , he shall make an election and be entitled to insurance benefits under only one of these Sections.
