Summit Rolls Out New Online Risk Eligibility Tool

This tool is a complementary new feature to the company's WriteNow Online Quoting Service.

The WriteNow Risk Eligibility Tool allows insurance agency staff to determine account eligibility for Summit's workers' comp programs and to view specific information related to a business's risk category. Details, such as prior coverage requirements, minimum premium, current rates, and preinspection requirements, are readily available and categorized by state and Summit-managed carrier.

The WriteNow Risk Eligibility Tool also enables users to review the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) codes that may apply to their clients.
