How Does CareFront's Technology Assessment Work?
CareFront doesn't sell technology — we price its impact on liability risk. Traditional underwriters price every facility the same based on bed count and loss history, ignoring the technology investments that measurably reduce exposures. Falls account for 45% of all senior living liability claims ($226,000 average indemnity). Elopement settlements average over $600,000.
Step 1 — Assess We evaluate your complete technology stack against our proprietary framework. Any vendor, any platform, any combination.
Step 2 — Price Measurable risk reductions earn concrete underwriting credits. For a technology-enabled 120-bed facility, that can mean $62,000–$104,000 in annual premium savings compared to traditional pricing.
Step 3 — Improve Better documentation settles claims 3+ months faster. We help you build the data-backed renewal story.
