Unless the insured had no prior cardiac health related events, an AD&D policy would NOT pay because a heart attack would be considered an illness or medical condition. However, if the operator of the mower were cut by its blades and subsequently had a heart attack it is likely that payment would occur. Be sure to check for a clause in the policy regarding "improper operation of equipment" as an exclusion. If an improper operation of equipment clause existed, being cut by the blades would only be honored if the equipment was manufacturered improperly.

The long story short is that AD&D policies are EXTREMELY profitable and the option to cover or deny a particular claim is up the insurer. In a weakened, injured or near death position, the insured is not likely to be able to benefit from a prolonged civil suit against the insurance company.... therefore the actual payment (even in clearly defined cases) is often a fraction of the policy's face value. A quick settlement is usually more enticing than a full payment protracted over 18 months of courtroom battles.

Spend the money on better health, life and auto insurance and you'll come out ahead statistically speaking.
