Colonial General Insurance Agency, Inc. is pleased to offer a robust Assisted Living Insurance program designed for independent agents and brokers seeking comprehensive solutions for senior living facilities. Our recently expanded program now provides broader coverage options and significantly reduced base rates, making it easier than ever to place business for assisted and independent living operations across the Western United States.
Overview of the Program From Colonial General
This program is built for independent and assisted living facilities needing tailored liability protection and enhanced risk mitigation. As a managing general agency and excess & surplus lines broker, Colonial General gives you access to specialized markets and flexible underwriting to meet the evolving needs of your senior living clients. Whether your insured operates a standalone independent living community or a full-service assisted living facility, our program is designed to offer the right fit.
Ideal Accounts and Appetite
We are actively seeking to write:
- Assisted living facilities (non-medical support, custodial care)
- Independent living communities
- Facilities with quality management and safety protocols
- New ventures with experienced operators may also be considered
We look for well-managed facilities with good loss history and a focus on resident safety and regulatory compliance. You might have a client operating a 40-bed independent living facility in Utah or a multi-location assisted living group in Arizona—both could be strong fits for this program.
