Policies that have been with MIEC for years will have an additional "Policies" tile appear on their dashboard. Clicking on the policies tile will allow you to view a separate dashboard that only shows the account details and documents from the selected year.

By default the policies page will open on the current policy year.

You can change that by clicking on the Policy drop-down and selecting the desired year. Currently, you can only view policies that were active when we transitioned to our new policy management system in 2022.

Once the desired year is selected you can navigate it as you would the other dashboard to view historic account balances and transactions, policy documents, coverages, etc.
