Endorsement processing, certificate issuance, loss run orders, renewal preparation, carrier portal submissions, policy checking and claims follow-up. [Get a staffing plan](https://assistbpo.com/get-a-staffing-plan/) [Book a 20-minute call](https://assistbpo.com/book-a-call/) The assistant is an employee of the group, not a freelancer, works your local hours under NDA, and comes with a trained backup and a team lead who runs a 20-minute weekly review. This page [Insurance agencies](https://assistbpo.com/industries/insurance/) [Virtual assistant services](https://assistbpo.com/services/virtual-assistant/) Updated September 2026 ## How does a virtual assistant work for insurance? A day starts with the service queue: overnight certificate requests, endorsement changes taken yesterday, downloads that failed to match an account in Applied Epic or HawkSoft. Then renewals: the list 60 days out, exposures requested, loss runs ordered, proposals assembled from your template. Between those, the assistant checks issued policies against the application, chases nonpay cancellations before the date and updates the claim log. Everything lands in an end-of-day report: handled, waiting on you, tomorrow's plan. Your licensed producer keeps the coverage conversation, the recommendation and the binding authority. We take the paperwork around them. Plain definition ## What are managed virtual assistant services? Managed virtual assistant services provide a remote assistant who is recruited, employed, trained and supervised by a staffing company rather than hired directly as a freelancer. You get a named person for a block of hours each month, a backup for continuity and a team lead who reviews quality. The provider handles payroll, equipment, security and replacement so you only handle the work. ## What tasks does a virtual assistant cover for insurance agencies? - Process endorsement requests in the carrier portal and check them on return - Issue ACORD certificates from the approved wording on each account - Order loss runs, MVRs and prior declarations pages for quoting and renewal - Assemble renewal proposals 60 days out from your template - Reconcile carrier downloads and clear suspense in the management system - Check issued policies against the quote and application line by line - File first notice of loss and follow adjusters until the claim closes - Chase nonpay cancellation notices and confirm payments with the carrier ## The KPI that matters here Service requests answered the same business day and renewals with exposures updated before the 60-day mark. Both are on the weekly review agenda. ## What rules does a virtual assistant follow for insurance? 1. **No licensed advice, no binding.** Assistants gather information, complete forms and process what your producer decides. They never recommend coverage, compare limits for a client, quote a premium as final, bind a risk or issue a binder. Producer licensing rules set by your state insurance department, built on the NAIC producer licensing model, reserve those acts for a licensed producer, and we stay on the service and administrative side of the line. 2. **TCPA for renewal and cross-sell calls.** Calls and texts to policyholders and X-date prospects follow the Telephone Consumer Protection Act enforced by the FCC: documented consent or an existing business relationship, calling hours of 8am to 9pm local time, scrubbing against the National Do Not Call Registry and your internal list, and opt-out wording on every text. State mini-TCPAs in Florida, Oklahoma and Washington are applied by area code. 3. **Customer information under GLBA.** Applications, loss runs and claim files hold nonpublic personal information covered by the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act and the FTC Safeguards Rule, and by the NAIC Insurance Data Security Model Law where your state has adopted it. Assistants work inside your own agency management system and carrier portals under named user accounts, on managed devices with MFA and no local storage, and access is revoked the day you ask. 4. **Medicare communication rules.** Agencies writing Medicare Advantage or Part D follow the CMS Medicare Communications and Marketing Guidelines: no unsolicited contact, a scope of appointment recorded before a sales meeting, and no comparison of plans by unlicensed staff. Assistants confirm appointments, collect the scope of appointment form and send approved materials only; the licensed agent runs the conversation. ## Insurance software we work in - [Salesforce](https://assistbpo.com/software/salesforce/) - [RingCentral](https://assistbpo.com/software/ringcentral/) - [Microsoft 365](https://assistbpo.com/software/microsoft-365/) Also in use - Applied Epic - HawkSoft - EZLynx - AMS360 - NowCerts [See all 80 tools we work in](https://assistbpo.com/software/) ## More for insurance agencies Other services for insurance - [Virtual receptionist](https://assistbpo.com/industries/insurance/virtual-receptionist/) - [Appointment scheduling](https://assistbpo.com/industries/insurance/appointment-scheduling/) - [Customer support](https://assistbpo.com/industries/insurance/customer-support-outsourcing/) - [Email management](https://assistbpo.com/industries/insurance/email-management/) - [Calendar management](https://assistbpo.com/industries/insurance/calendar-management/) - [Data entry](https://assistbpo.com/industries/insurance/data-entry/) - [The insurance pod](https://assistbpo.com/industries/insurance/) Virtual assistant in other industries - [Accounting & bookkeeping firms](https://assistbpo.com/industries/accounting-firms/virtual-assistant/) - [Financial advisors & wealth firms](https://assistbpo.com/industries/financial-advisors/virtual-assistant/) - [Mortgage brokers & lenders](https://assistbpo.com/industries/mortgage/virtual-assistant/) - [IT & MSPs](https://assistbpo.com/industries/it-msp/virtual-assistant/) - [The full virtual assistant page](https://assistbpo.com/services/virtual-assistant/) ## Frequently asked questions ### What can an unlicensed insurance assistant do? Take service requests, process endorsements your client has already decided on, issue certificates from approved wording, order loss runs and motor vehicle records, complete ACORD applications from client answers, prepare renewal packets, check issued policies and file first notice of loss. What they cannot do is advise on coverage, compare policies for a client, quote a binding premium or bind a risk. Your state insurance department draws that line and we keep a copy of it in the playbook. ### Will the assistant work inside our carrier portals? Yes, under named user accounts your agency creates on each carrier site, with the permissions you choose. That keeps every submission attributed to a real person and lets you revoke access instantly. Most agencies give service-level access to Travelers, Progressive, Safeco, Nationwide, Chubb and their regional carriers, plus the comparative rater. The assistant never uses a shared login, and passwords live in your own password manager rather than anywhere else. ### How does a hard market or a carrier pulling out get covered? The assistant's hours are fixed, so the mix changes rather than the bill. When a carrier nonrenews a book, the work shifts to pulling expiring terms, gathering updated exposures and building remarket submissions so your producers have complete files to shop. Routine work such as certificate reissues moves to the trained backup for a few weeks. Plans depend on hours, desks and coverage. Get a staffing plan within 1 business day.
