Underwriting (v.)
-the process of accepting risk for a stated premium
At P.E.R.U. underwriting encompasses much more. Our underwriters attempt to define the needs of your clients through evaluation of both current and historical data. Sometimes an underwriter must go beyond the requested need and envision a more comprehensive solution.
“Price does not define Phoenix Excess Risk Underwriters, Solutions to your problems and the relationships we build define Phoenix Excess Risk Underwriters. We are an ever evolving company designed to fit you and your client’s needs”

Claims
The function of the claims department of P.E.R.U. is to adjudicat stop loss claims in excess of the specific and aggregate deductibles on behalf of our reinsurance carriers.
Specific and aggregate reimbursement requests are reviewed in-house up to $100,000. Claims in excess of $100,000 are referred to the carrier for approval and recommendation of payment.
PERU strives to keep a 3 – 5 day turnaround time for a submission review to be completed and a reimbursement requested from our reinsurer.
