Filing and document search
Search the filing record, not just filing metadata. Filings, forms, rate and rule manuals and supporting documents each have their own search, so a form can be found without opening the filing it came in.
Four searches, one for each part of a filing
A filing bundles a summary, forms, rate and rule pages and supporting documents. FilingFocus keeps each as its own searchable set, with filters that fit the document.
Filings
Insurance filings and regulatory correspondence: filing metadata, summaries, objections, responses and dispositions.
Forms
Policy forms, endorsements and applications, with active forms, prior editions and filing history.
Rate and rule manuals
Rating factors, eligibility rules, underwriting language and manual pages.
Supporting documents
Actuarial memoranda, indications, exhibits, explanatory materials and attachments.
Four searches
Filings
By company, state and line
Status, dates and rate change
Forms
By form number and type
Active status, prior and subsequent editions
Rate and rule
By manual type
Rate manuals, rule manuals, underwriting guidelines
Supporting docs
By document type
Actuarial memos, redlines, checklists
Filings
Find filings by who filed, where, what for and what happened to them.
Company and group
The company that submitted the filing, or every company under an insurance group.
Type and sub-type of insurance
The primary insurance category and the sub-type under it.
Submission date and status
When the filing was submitted to the state and where it stands, from submitted and pending to closed.
Filing version
Whether a filing introduces a new product or program, modifies or withdraws an existing one, was rejected, or is administrative. New products typically carry a full set of forms and rating manuals.
Rate change
The maximum rate change requested and the overall rate impact on the program.
Product name and tracking number
The product name listed in the filing and the company’s own tracking number.
Forms
Results are grouped by the form itself. When the same form appears in several filings or states, one row shows the companies, states and filings it appears in.
Form type
Applications, declarations and schedules, disclosures and notices, endorsements, cancellation notices, certificates and more.
Form action
New, replaced, initial or withdrawn.
Active status
Whether the form appears to be currently in use, with an Active Forms Only toggle.
Prior and subsequent forms
Links to the edition a form replaced and to the edition that later replaced it, with the filing each came in.
Form number
The form number and edition date, searchable in whole or in part.

Search inside the documents
Use filters to define which filings or documents are eligible, then search the text itself.
Document text
The words should appear inside the PDF body. Results include the matching document and page references.
Filing summary text
The words should appear in a filing summary or one of its sections, such as an objection or response.
Document or form name
You know part of the title but do not need the words to appear inside the document.
How filters combine
Values selected inside one filter are alternatives. Different filters are cumulative.
