Illustration Software Update: GME Increases

Late last year we expanded The Standard’s Illustration Software so you could run increase quotes for your clients. We’re happy to report that you can now create increase quotes for GME policyowners, too.

If you already run increase quotes for fully underwritten policies, creating GME policy increase quotes will be easy. GME increase quoting works the same way in the Illustration Software. And you’ll be able to tell at a glance from your monthly FPO reports which policies you can run increase quotes for. They will now show GME policies eligible for a Platinum Advantage increase, too.

Why run your own quotes? It eliminates any time lag because you don’t have to wait for the home office. You’ll also have access to all previously run illustrations. This makes it simple to make quick changes. Plus, we’ve built in a number of system validations so you can be confident your quotes are accurate.

We’ve updated the Increase Illustrations User Guide with information about GME increase quotes. If you’re new to running increase illustrations, you can expect to hear from your in force case manager soon. We’ll schedule a time to walk you through this update and answer any questions.
