PART 3: Tips on images, paperwork and medical records
Does ExamOne offer a delivery of exam images straight to the carrier? What’s the back-end paperwork process?
Yes, we do. Depending on your preferred workflow, ExamOne offers several different options for back-end process.
Once an exam has been completed and we receive the paperwork, as part of our ExamOne Superior Solutions process, all paperwork is reviewed for quality to ensure that by the time it gets to you, everything is in good order.
If you utilize ExamOne Imaging or Paperclip, you have the option to download the completed and quality-controlled exam paperwork into your imaging system to send to the carrier – saving you an extra step in the process.
1-Minute Tip:
Utilize straight-through-to-carrier process* along with electronic Part 2 and electronic laboratory slips to save time. Please don’t hesitate to ask us how each of these options might be a good fit for your business. (*Contact your ExamOne representative to see what carriers offer the imaging process.)
Does ExamOne offer any alternatives for ordering health data or Medical Records?
If you find that you’re doing business on a more informal basis, check into using our real-time data solutions – ExamOne Risk Identifier for prescription history and clinical data, and ScriptCheck® for prescription history. These in-house, pre-underwriting tools will help with non-disclosures – intentional and non-intentional. Plus, it’ll save you time in identifying where to place the case.
While these data solutions may not always replace the need for medical records, it will help to identify cases that need more risk management resources – directly impacting the gathering of requirements and accelerating (significantly!) the underwriting process.
1-Minute Tip:
To learn more about these solutions, check out these blog posts regarding Risk Identifier and Script Check. Our team would be happy to give you a demo of these tools in action.
PART 2: Tips on online lab results, ordering and scheduling
Morgan, explain how applicants can obtain their laboratory results online via Inside Look with ExamOne.
Many insurance carriers subscribe to our exclusive product called Inside Look Online. This valuable service allows for easy online access to laboratory results, helping applicants to stay informed about their health.
During the exam process, the examiner is instructed to provide the applicant with a brochure. This brochure contains the instructions on how to obtain their laboratory results on our website, as well as the corresponding barcode.
When you include your applicant’s email in the exam order, the applicant will also be notified by email and instructed on how to access their laboratory results. These laboratory results belong to the applicant and will require specific instructions on how to access the results, but in some cases and if agreed to, applicants might be willing to share the laboratory results with you and the agent.
If you’re not sure which companies participate in Inside Look Online, reach out to our team for an informative guide and instructions for both you and the applicant.
1-Minute Tip
Watch Inside Look video and share it with your agents and applicants.

What are some best practices for ordering and scheduling an exam?
Generally speaking, best practices for ordering and scheduling exams will start with the agent and their client. When you are ready to order the exam requirements, follow these guidelines:
- Recommend our applicant-dedicated website –MyExamOne.com – which includes instructions on how to prepare for the exam process
- Place the order online (system-to-system or directly on website) and be sure to include the applicant’s email address
- ExamOne will send applicant appointment reminders
- We also use applicant’s email to send information on how to access Online Laboratory Results and post-exam survey feedback (optional)
- Use the ScheduleNow™ tool
- Ask your agents for 3 available dates/times (including weekend, evening and morning availability) prior to ordering the exam
- Select an exam time based on your applicant’s preferred address from the ScheduleNow real-time appointment calendar
- Or use applicant self-scheduling
- If you are not provided with a day and time, engage the applicant with online exam self-scheduling through ScheduleNow. Provide us with the applicant’s email address when you place the order and we’ll send an email to the applicant with instructions on how to schedule their own appointment and prepare for the exam.
- Please connect with your Sales Representative or Account Representative to activate the applicant self-scheduling option
1-Minute Tip:
If you have any rush requests, we always recommend contacting your dedicated Account Representative to assist once the order has been placed. Often, we’re able to accommodate rush requests as long as we know in advance the requested date and time, required services and location/address info. For best results, it helps to ensure that the order is already in our system.
