Updating Contact Information During First Notice of Loss Entry
-------------------
-------------------
August 02, 2018
Agents now can update a phone number and/or email address for a policy's first and any additional named insured when entering a first notice of loss (FNOL). The information automatically will update on the account and policy for which the FNOL is submitted. As a result:
- Once the update is made during the FNOL process, it will be used as the primary contact information going forward.
- Citizens adjusters and staff will use the updated information.
- An activity will go to the agent of record to confirm that contact information was updated on the policy.
- If necessary, update contact information for the customer's additional policies by submitting a policy change.
Updating a Named Insured's Phone and/or Email
When a policy's first or additional named insured reports a loss, initiate a new FNOL:
- Select the first or additional named insured's name on the Reported By Name drop-down list.
- Select Self on the Relationship to Insured drop-down list.
- The New FNOL screen displays a message and a link to update their phone and/or email. Select the Contact link:

Complete the fields as necessary on the Contact Detail screen and designate a primary phone number (for persons). After submission, the New FNOL screen displays the updated information.
