# Apply coverages to an insurance policy

Define the coverages for an insurance policy by using the Insurance claims application. You can define what coverages types and coverage options apply to a customer's insurance policy.

## Before you begin

Create a coverage specification with the coverage types and coverage options. For more information, see [Coverage specification](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/brazil/markdown/financial-services-operations/insurance-claims/coverage-specification.md).

Create an insurance policy. For more information, see [Create an insurance policy](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/brazil/markdown/financial-services-operations/insurance-claims/create-an-insurance-policy-for-a-consumer.md).

Role required: admin

## Procedure

2.  Open the list view of an insurance policy table.

3.  Open an insurance policy record in the table.

4.  Select and hold \(or right-click\) the header and navigate to **Configure** > **Related Lists**.

5.  Confirm that only the following related lists are present:

    -   Policy Coverage->Insurance policy
    -   Policy Participant->Insurance policy
6.  Select **Save**.

7.  In the Policy Coverages related list, select **New**.

8.  On the form, fill in the fields.

    |Field|Description|

9.  Repeat steps 7 through 8 for each policy coverage that you want to add.
