NEW BUSINESS NEWS
New Process for Bank Draft Authorization
John Hancock has established a new notification step to help
set your client’s expectations regarding the timing of a
bank draft deduction. We are adding a reminder to the new
business set up to ensure the producer authorizes bank draft
cases. This allows you an opportunity to notify your clients
of approval – so that they are aware when the first premium
will be deducted from their account. You simply need to
notify your case manager when the time is appropriate to
deduct. There is no paperwork required.
If you have any questions, please contact your case manager or speak to a New Business representative at 800-377-7311. Please note: the bank draft authorization may be provided to your case
manager at any point during the new business process.
Our new Brainshark training module, LTC Underwriting Overview, Strengths, and the Process, will update you on the most recent changes to our underwriting procedures, as well as explain the value of our new approach to you and your clients. Click here to view
