How Do You Implement Insurance Document Management?

What Are Insurance Document Compliance Requirements?

P&C insurance requires 6-7 years retention; health insurance may require indefinite retention under HIPAA. Automated lifecycle management ensures compliance.

Insurance document management must comply with multiple regulatory frameworks including state insurance codes, federal privacy laws, and industry-specific standards. CapturePoint includes built-in compliance features for record retention schedules, audit trails, and access controls that help agencies meet these requirements automatically.

Document retention requirements vary by insurance type and state regulations.
