Those attending the recent Quality Management Seminar received initial exposure to an exciting new web-based tool available to PAR insureds -- Passport. This innovative technology operates essentially like an electronic file cabinet, making it possible for password-approved users to access virtually any document related to their account.
Through Passport, you can stay current with the most up-to-date information about every aspect of your account quickly and easily --everything from QM documentation to management of your renewal. All documentation and every-agreed upon change can be tracked with the simple click of a mouse.
In addition, Passport can be fully customized so that it meets your needs and specifications perfectly. You can create individualized pages by account, specifying the exact content and format of information for a simple, seamless sharing of data. Every approved user will be able to access the latest version of any document, so that everyone will be operating with the most recent, accurate information available.
Passport was created with particular attention to security as well, so, as a PAR insured, you can confidently utilize the system. The Passport System is protected by the latest 128-bit Extended Validation SSL by VeriSign, and third-party security audits are routinely conducted. In addition, Passport is HIPAA compliant, ensuring that your data is secure.
To maintain reliable security, every approved Passport group member is assigned a password. You can even approve different levels of access for different users. Ultimately, you control whether an individual has read-only status or holds the authorization to make and approve changes. Any changes to your account are fully documented, greatly simplifying your ability to create a historical record of your business and its coverages.
Again and again, PAR emphasizes the importance of documentation. With Passport, you’ll establish an effortless paper trail. You’ll know what was discussed, what was approved or declined, and who specifically authorized each decision. It’s simple; it’s secure, and it’s available to PAR insureds through an exclusive agreement with Assurex Global.
