Selection Framework℠ exist to help an organization choose and qualify carriers well. They establish criteria for what a sound vetting process looks like, and they are valuable references that get cited in industry conversations, audits, and training.
The Case Dismissed℠ Protocol is not a selection Framework℠. It does not tell an organization which carrier to choose. It documents the decision that was made, the data available at the time, and the reasoning behind it, in a form built to survive discovery and depositions rather than to satisfy an internal audit.
Selection Framework℠ get cited. This gets hired, because the question a plaintiff’s attorney asks is not did you follow a recognized framework, but can you prove, with a timestamped record, exactly what your organization knew and did at the moment that matters.
