Here’s how it works. For each type of coverage that has a deductible (Property, Automobile Physical Damage, Educators Legal Liability) the deductible decreases each year that the member does not have a claim.
This graph shows how the deductible eventually “disappears” over time.

After a member has a claim in one of these coverage categories, the deductible for that coverage alone will increase the following year to the standard deductible. Note that you could still have a zero deductible on Property, even if you had a claim in Automobile Physical Damage for instance.
This program rewards members who manage to avoid claims. The longer your school district is a claim-free, the greater the reward.
