Insurance Audit Review Services

Learn More

An insurance audit is a mandatory review done by your carrier at the end of your policy term.

They compare your estimated numbers with your actual numbers:

  • Payroll

  • Gross receipts

  • Number of employees

  • Subcontractor expenses

  • Changes in operations

  • Certificates of insurance

If anything was reported incorrectly or not prepared properly, you may owe an unexpected bill — sometimes in the thousands.

We make sure that doesn’t happen.

What Is an Insurance Audit?

  • Before your audit starts, we help you:

    • Organize payroll records

    • Verify job classifications (class codes)

    • Separate clerical, sales, and field employees

    • Review 1099 and subcontractor documentation

    • Confirm owner/officer exclusions

    • Prepare COIs for subcontractors

    • Identify exempt payroll categories

    This prevents unnecessary charges.

  • We guide you through the entire process, including:

    • Communicating with the auditor

    • Ensuring correct categories and codes

    • Reviewing what documents are required

    • Making sure you don’t provide more than needed

    • Protecting against misinterpretation of your operations

    We represent your business, not the carrier.

  • Once the audit is completed, we:

    • Review the audit statement line-by-line

    • Identify errors or inflated charges

    • Compare to your original quote and payroll

    • Verify subcontractor treatment

    • Analyze class code accuracy

    • Inspect EMOD changes

    • Ensure premium calculations are correct

    Most errors are found after the audit — this is where we save businesses the most money.

    • Modified duty/light duty programs

    • OSHA compliance improvements

    These steps lower claims and reduce long-term insurance costs.

  • If the carrier made a mistake, we will:

    • File corrections

    • Submit evidence

    • Request recalculations

    • Challenge incorrect classifications

    • Negotiate with underwriters and auditors

    You don’t have to fight the carrier alone.
