Efficient
We issued more than 4 million certificates in 2020 alone. It’s not uncommon for us to issue 10,000+ certificates per month for just one client. We can clear certificate backlogs in a fraction of the time.
Accurate
Our certificate of insurance accuracy rate is greater than 99%. When we check a certificate, we do so in detail, cross referencing key information and coverage items against source documents. Delivering accurate certificates to certificate holders is a key component of protecting your agency against claims.
Why do leading insurance agencies choose Patra for their certificate processing?
Patra streamlines certificate of insurance processing and delivery. Here is how we do it:
We process certificate requests via email or within your agency management system (AMS).
Your Patra certificate processing team generates the certificate based upon the contract request.
We double check the certificate against the certificate issuance document and the request before sending. Before issuing the certificate, our QA team also reviews to ensure a thorough check.
You decide the certificate delivery method. We can deliver certificates directly to the certificate holder or to your agency.
We offer three certificate delivery methods to choose from:
- Email: We send certificates on your agency’s behalf via your email system. That’s right—any email that we send to your customers looks like it came directly from your agency, with your desired verbiage and branding.
- Print & Mail: Patra’s in-house print shop prints 3.5 million certificates annually. We can print and mail directly to the certificate holder.
