Erie Family Life Accelerates Entire New Business Process with iPipeline’s Digital Life Insurance Platform
Integrated e-App, Underwriting, Policy Generation, Illustrations, and e-Delivery Speed New Business Process
EXTON, PA (May 1, 2018) – iPipeline® – a leading provider of cloud-based software solutions for the life insurance and financial services industry – today reported Erie Family Life has extended the capabilities of its digital life insurance platform by adding auto-policy generation and e-Delivery. As part of the comprehensive solution, agents can dynamically adjust values on policies, based on the carrier’s rules, to increase or decrease insurance face amounts and adjust payment frequencies upon receipt. When this occurs, DocFast, iPipeline’s e-delivery solution, requests modifications from the Illustration platform and dynamically reissues the policy, with a new illustration, to reflect agent changes.
“Digital transformation is the reimagining of our organizations to optimize how we work and service our clients. Erie Family Life has laid out an executable strategy and consistently delivered on it to achieve a position of leadership within the insurance industry,” said Tim Wallace, CEO, iPipeline. “Consumers have high expectations for a digital experience in all facets of life. The insurance industry is not an exception, and ERIE’s ability to automate and simplify the entire new business process demonstrates how innovation can produce a competitive advantage.”
“Our legacy with iPipeline spans many years of process refinement and technology integrations. During that time, we have made substantial strides in creating a digital life insurance platform to enhance the customer and agent experience,” said Louis Colaizzo, senior vice president of Life Insurance, Erie Family Life. “Our ability to auto-generate policies and e-Deliver them is a tremendous advantage for ERIE, our agents and our customers. We have also enabled agents to adjust face amounts, within approved underwriting parameters, to reissue policies with an illustration. This is reducing cycling and processing costs, making it easier for our agents to do business with us, and improving customer satisfaction.”
iPipeline’s platform is designed to enable the life insurance and financial services industry to automate and simplify all new business, administration, and in force management tasks to achieve desirable business outcomes.
