About policy types

Having a fixed list of insurance policy types gives you more control of the information entered in MRI OnLocation. It avoids double-ups, controls naming conventions, and it keeps information more organized. Manage this list in Insurance Settings.

Each contractor organization insurance policy is linked to a policy type. Every account comes with 26 default policy types. These are fully customizable and can be adjusted to meet your needs where required.

Each policy type can be assigned to a specific audience. Choose if the policy type applies to:

  • All contractor organizations
  • Contractor organizations from select locations 
  • Contractor organizations in select categories or groups
