Analysts predict that disruptive technologies like Robotic Process Automation, or RPA, could potentially automate the work in the insurance sector to a great extent. RPA is a new breed of technology that promises great potential and advantages for insurers. But it can lead to high risk of failure if not implemented effectively.

Any insurance company, whether providers of car insurance, health insurance, property insurance or travel insurance are highly indulged in back-office process. Insurance companies deal with a variety of paper work. This means, employees must manual enter information from various data sources.

A manual claims process can be very lengthy and cumbersome which could create serious dissatisfaction amongst customers and hamper both customer service and operations.
Robotic Process Automation enables the claims to be processed at a much faster pace by automating manual labor intensive processes of gathering data from various sources, data entry and validation, and routing of document. The resultant process efficiency, increase in cost savings and reduction in errors greatly helps in the boosting the Insurance Company’s profitability.
Underwriting process comprises of collection of huge amount data from multiple sources for assessing and analyzing risks and exposure associated with a potential customer. As the manual process is very time consuming and easily take up to a couple of weeks and affect
Robotic Process Automation allows accurate collection and processing of data from various data sources automatically and in much faster pace. It will help in freeing capacity and will also ensure accuracy and deliver the work in a timely manner, allowing more new customers to come, with the faster response times.

AI and Analytics can give insights to insurers for risks. This will help for personalized flexible covers and move from being risk insurers to risk mitigators with services for alerts, repairs and rewards. RPA can analyze the claim history of reports from past years and provide the insights based on previous losses.
An insurance company can improve their processes only if there are some means to gauge whatever they are doing. The implementation of RPA makes the gauging much easier. All the processes or workflows which are taken care by RPA can be tracked and recorded at each step. It can provide the insurance company with the details like the transactions processed, the exceptions encountered etc. These values can help them in improving their process, reducing workload from the staff and also to make their customers happy.
Policy administration links all the functions of an insurer such as quoting, assessment, underwriting to distributing customer services. –. Current policy administration systems that have been around for decades are expensive and high-maintenance. They cannot scale quickly enough to meet the growing demands of customers or support business growth.
While current management softwares & systems have saved us a lot of time and labor, they have also introduced extensive navigation through multiple applications which in turn gives rise to operational inefficiency.
RPA in Insurance allows all key players within each process or each silo to accomplish a plethora of operations easily without involving vast navigation across systems. It essentially automates transactional and administrative parts of activities such as accounting, settlements, risk capture, credit control, tax, and regulatory compliances.
