Clearinghouse Powered by EZLynx – Establishing Coverage A Values
05.01.25

Between May 1, 2025, and May 8, 2025, EZLynx® will enable a new feature called Pre-Fill Home that will allow agents to establish a Coverage A replacement cost estimate (RCE) value from the RCT Express cost estimator in PolicyCenter®.

Pre-Fill Home will allow more than 13 Coverage A property characteristics and a calculated RCE value that can be used in EZLynx. The Coverage A value established with this feature will match the Coverage A provided in a full, unedited RCT Express cost estimator in PolicyCenter. These characteristics will transfer to EZLynx. They can be changed if they are not accurate.



Accessing the Pre-Fill Home Feature in EZLynx

When you complete the Applicant Info screen for a customer in EZLynx, select the Pre-Fill home button on the top-right corner of the Personal Lines Applicant screen to establish the Coverage A value for the Primary Address field.

  • You have the option to accept the pre-filled property characteristics by selecting Finish.
  • You can select Cancel to reject the pre-filled property information and enter it manually.
  • You also can remove the checkmarks in the boxes on the Pre-Fill Home screen to indicate which default values you want to enter manually in the quote.

Note: Any changes to property details provided by Pre-Fill Home must also be made in the RCT Express valuation in PolicyCenter (i.e., year built, roof shape, roof covering, wind mitigation features) to generate a comparable Coverage A value.

For more details, log in to the Agents site and refer to the Using EZLynx Pre-fill Home job aid.
