Insurance Audit Services

M&K’s Houston audit professionals have extensive knowledge of the transactions, market pressure and regulatory issues that are unique to insurance companies and insurance audit and accounting services. An insurance audit is a process common to this industry to ensure you have not paid more than the appropriate premium for your exposure. When your policy was issued, the premium is based on payroll or sales estimate you provide prior to your policy start date. A premium audit is conducted at the end of the policy period to determine if premiums are set properly and to adjust the estimates based on the actual payroll or sales figures. These types of insurance audits are commonly performed on General Liability, Liquor Liability and Workers’ Compensation policies. We provide assurance services, Model Audit Rule compliance, tax planning and compliance and business transactions.
