Digital Transformation in Insurance

Too often when insurers undertake digital transformation, they limit their efforts to modernizing customer-facing digital assets, like their website, mobile apps, chatbots, etc.  But true digital transformation is an enterprise-wide endeavor that modernizes the technologies not only in your digital channels, but the solutions your employees use, and the ways you can capture feedback directly from the customer.

Check out this series of articles on digital transformation in insurance to learn more:

Healthcare Insurance Digital CX

In the Verint Experience Index: Health Insurance, respondents indicated that they prefer to use digital self-service (39%) just slightly more than the contact center/voice channel (34%), with assisted digital support (email, chat) coming in third (11%).

When enrolling for new health insurance, 46% of respondents said they’d start their enrollment journey with the insurer’s digital self-service channel.  And while only 17% would start with the insurer’s contact center, 30% of respondents will end up using the insurer’s contact center at some point in their journey, and nearly one-quarter (21%) will end their journey there.

To develop exceptional service, healthcare insurers need to optimize CX across all touchpoints, both human and bots.  Want to learn more?

Property and Casualty Digital CX

In the Verint Experience Index: Property and Casualty Insurance 2022 report, consumers of across generations still heavily rely on the voice/phone channel for interacting with their insurer.  42% of respondents said they’d start with the phone/contact center when filing a claim or requesting support. The report found that:

  • Direct person-to-person interaction remains top-of-mind for many consumers.
  • Pandemic changes were a matter of fact for many respondents, with some even excusing the long phone hold times.
  • Customers are becoming more comfortable engaging with insurers via digital channels.

The report also found that 8 percent of those who switched to digital found the customer service worse. Insurers need to identify the right tasks and processes for digital service but give the customer an “escape route” to seamlessly transition from a digital channel to a human when the customer becomes frustrated or unable to resolve their request digitally.

The Impact of the Great Resignation on Insurance

The insurance industry is hampered by a perception that is old-fashioned and unexciting. In this highly competitive environment for talent, insurers need to:

  • Modernize the tools employees use to execute their jobs.
  • Level up their onboarding and employee development programs to train, retain and reward performance
  • Encourage creativity and bridge the generation gap

Task and Process Automation Are Not Enough

Many insurers are in the process of upgrading their core systems and moving to the cloud.  Great!  But these systems primarily focus on automating tasks and processes.

The greater opportunity lies in solutions that improve the performance of your most costly asset – your employees.  Improving employee productivity, effectiveness, and utilization can deliver tangible ROI and business outcomes.
