Scope of Loss
The complete list of damaged items and their scope of repair.
Scope of Loss is the carrier adjuster's assessment of what was damaged and what the repair requires. Often narrowed compared to the actual full scope. Public adjusters generate a parallel scope as leverage.
In practice
Where you encounter "Scope of Loss" in Florida claims
Policyholders see "Scope of Loss" referenced in policy language, claim correspondence, and carrier scope of loss documents. Knowing the precise definition under Florida practice keeps you from accepting carrier framing. See also FS 626.854 on Public Adjuster licensing and FS 627.70131 on carrier duties.
