The Just-in-Time Process

Getting contracted is the first step in submitting business with an insurance carrier. The team at Pinnacle Financial Services can help simplify this process for you. A lot of agents think they need to be contracted with a company first before they can submit business. However, the insurance industry as of late has been moving towards the “just-in-time” process.

What is just-in-time? It is a process where the insurance carrier takes your contracting paperwork, but does not file your appointment with the state until the first piece of business is written and submitted. It has been introduced lately to save the carrier time in appointing those who never submit any business. The previous pattern involved agents becoming contracted with a carrier, never submitting business, and then terminated due to lack of production. Then the cycle would restart as they would be ask to be re-appointed, only to repeat the process all over again.  This not only wastes time but also money, and the carriers don’t want to do this dance anymore.

Some of the carriers Pinnacle has partnered with that utilize the just-in-time appointment process are:
