Document Services

Duplicate Reporting

Upon receipt of signed authorization from the applicant, a copy of a report completed for one carrier may be duplicated (copied) and reported to additional carriers. Duplicate reporting saves you time and money, saves your applicant from an unnecessary needle stick and provides you with the same information a previous carrier was looking at when considering an application. Requests for duplicate reports should be submitted to Customer Service by email at insurancecs@crlcorp.com. To streamline the process of ordering duplicate reports, you may wish to have a Blanket Authorization in place with CRL. For additional information contact insurancesupport@crlcorp.com.

SmartScore^®

CRL’s SmartScore is the culmination of many years of research at CRL providing a simple, validated assessment of an applicant's risk based on a single score encompassing all laboratory studies and physical measurements. Through the use of the CRL database and external Death Master Files, the results of each laboratory test have been compared to later mortality for millions of applicants. Based on that research, the risk pattern by age and sex for each test has been published and is available. The risk-based assessment for each test is combined into an even more effective and simpler global risk assessment tool suitable for automation, the SmartScore. Additional information on SmartScore and a SmartScore Primer is available.
