Why this matters

Insurance admin becomes harder when documents, emails, receipts and notes live in separate places. A structured record helps people find the right source document, preserve the paper trail and avoid repeated searching. This article is general information only. It does not consider your objectives, financial situation or needs. Check the relevant policy documents and speak with a broker, insurer or licensed adviser before making decisions.

Key things to know

  • Keep source documents beside the policy record they belong to.
  • Use consistent dates, names and status labels for current and archived records.
  • Record uncertain details as questions rather than assumptions.
  • Use selected sharing when a broker, family member or admin only needs part of the record.
