Release 1 · four questions
What you can ask
Every number was asked through DV Digest and checked against a direct query on production.
Q-9For each client, which policies are they on, with which carrier, and in what role?
Sunbelt Senior's clients are the owner on 9 policies, the insured on 3 and the payor on 1. A client can hold more than one role on one policy.
Q-10How much coverage does each carrier provide through us?
Northfield Life: 125,000.00 dollars in face amount.
Q-11Which agent sold each policy, and where do our sources disagree about it?
Sunbelt Senior's sales data and Northfield Life's policy data agree about the agent who sold it on 14 policies and disagree on 1. One sale sent policy NF-100005 without its carrier, so the vault keeps that policy as two records until release 2 joins them; counted by policy number, as here, it counts once.
Q-15How many records arrive in a form we don't accept, from which source?
3, all from Sunbelt Senior.
