Three questions for your underwriter this renewal, and the reason to ask them before the quote, not after the declination.

Is any part of this triaged before you see it? What gets a file auto-referred? If a model declines it, who can override?

Most carriers will answer the first two. The third is the one that tells you how the account will actually be handled. As stated by the underwriter, not measured by us.
