Last updated: August 8, 2026. Insurance premiums are a major recurring cost: the Insurance Information Institute lists U.S. property/casualty net premiums written at $857.8 billion in 2023. The Insurance Policy and Premium Tracker in Google Sheets helps policyholders, insurance agencies, finance admins, and small business owners monitor annual premium, policy type, status, provider, renewal workflow, and payment frequency in one editable spreadsheet. Built by PK for a 300K+ spreadsheet learning audience, this one-time $6.99 tracker gives you a practical renewal and premium view without another monthly insurance app subscription.

What’s Inside the Insurance Policy and Premium Tracker in Google Sheets
1 – Overview Page
The Overview Page is the main dashboard sheet. At the top, the Total Annual Premium card summarizes the recurring premium amount, so users can quickly understand total yearly insurance commitment before reviewing individual policies.
The page also includes multiple slicers. Users can filter by policy type, status, provider, renewal workflow, premium frequency, or other available fields, then review the filtered cards and charts without rebuilding formulas.
Policy Count by Policy Type: This chart groups policies by type so users can see how their insurance portfolio is distributed. It helps separate health, auto, life, property, business, travel, and custom policy categories.
Policy Count by Status: This chart shows how many policies are active, expired, cancelled, pending renewal, or in another workflow stage. It is useful for finding policy records that need attention before coverage gaps appear.
Annual Premium by Policy: This chart compares yearly premium cost by individual policy. It helps users identify the policies that drive the highest annual spend and prioritize review during renewal season.
Days to Renewal by Policy: This chart highlights the renewal timing for each policy. It helps users see which policies need immediate action and which ones can be reviewed later.
2 – Menus Sheet
The Menus sheet controls the dropdown values used across the tracker. Keeping menu options consistent helps prevent duplicate provider names, inconsistent policy statuses, and unclear renewal workflow labels.
Policy Options by Policy Type: This section stores the allowed policy type values. Clean policy type options make the dashboard easier to filter and compare.
Renewal Workflow Options by Status: This section supports renewal tracking by status. Users can separate active, renewal due, under review, expired, cancelled, or custom statuses.
Insurance Company Options by Insurance Provider: This section stores provider names so policy records use consistent company labels. That makes provider-level review cleaner.
Payment Schedule Options by Premium Frequency: This section controls frequency labels such as monthly, quarterly, semi-annual, annual, or custom schedules. It helps users compare premiums without messy text entries.

Who This Template Is For – and Who It’s Not For
This tracker is for families, small business owners, insurance coordinators, finance admins, agencies, consultants, and spreadsheet users who want a clear policy list, renewal view, annual premium summary, provider list, and controlled status workflow in Google Sheets.
It is not an insurance policy administration system, claims platform, payment processor, compliance filing tool, actuarial model, or replacement for licensed insurance advice. Users should still confirm coverage details with their insurer, broker, or qualified advisor.
