Underwriting
|
| Q |
How long does it take to get a group approved?
|
| A |
For small groups the general rules are that once received by Dickerson in our underwriting department, we can turn the group around within 48 hours - this means that the group is either submitted to the carrier or returned to the broker/group for additional information. The broker is notified by email or fax (you can indicate a preference) when submitted. Then the carrier usually takes 48 hours to either approve/deny or request additional information. So the more complete the paperwork is at the beginning will help expedite the approval process.
|
|
| Q |
What can a broker do to help expedite the underwriting process?
|
| A |
Attention to detail is important. Make sure all the necessary paperwork is attached:
- DE6 or ownership documents
- ensure group meets participation requirements of the carrier
- enclose the initial premium check along with a copy of the quote
- complete employers application including worker's compensation information if required
- fully completed employee applications including socials for themselves and dependents if applicable and decline
- enclose prior carrier bill with dates of coverage for each employee
