The PolicyRoutes method
We map the decision, not just the product.
A good insurance decision is usually a sequence. PolicyRoutes organizes research around that sequence.
1
Risk
Define what can go wrong and what financial exposure actually matters.
2
Coverage
Understand what the policy includes, excludes, limits, and conditions.
3
Comparison
Normalize variables so you are comparing equivalent policy structures.
4
Verification
Confirm current policy forms, state rules, endorsements, and declarations.
