WA State SecureCare Processing Update
Important details regarding the final processing of WA state LTC / SecureCare business.
The deadline for processing a WA state SecureCare policy is 10/29 at 3pm CST
We are making every attempt to underwrite and process WA SecureCare policies before the 10/29 deadline. Here are a couple important items to note:
- We have accelerated all WA state tele-interviews in an attempt to provide enough time to underwrite those cases. We were able to accelerate all but a couple of those cases which were completed by end of last week.
- APS orders will prove to be a challenge. If you have cases pending APS, we recommend you or the client make an attempt to obtain the information from the client’s Doctor.
- In order for a WA policy to be dated prior to the Nov. 1st deadline, we will require these items by the 10/29 3pm CST deadline:
- Underwriting decision
- Issue Requirements
- Premium
- If we have all of these requirements by the deadline, the policy will be dated by 10/29. The policy delivery & delivery requirements can happen after Nov. 1st. Expect that there will be a delay in the mailing of these policies.
- You may see a notice on the file to submit pending policy requirements by 10/15. Sending requirements and premium by 10/15 will help us in getting policies issued by the deadline but ultimately 10/29 is the hard deadline.
