It\u2019s everywhere, from Google\u2019s Alexa and Apple\u2019s Siri on your smart gadgets to chatbots in banking accounts, the list goes on. Every business and industry is now looking for ways to take advantage of AI in order to stay competitive and offer their customers the best experience possible.\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Of course, insurance companies are no exception.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While the insurance industry wasn\u2019t the first to innovate, changes were inevitable.

chatbot<\/b><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is what it says on the tin. It\u2019s a virtual assistant programmed to facilitate communication between the insurance company and customers. There are two types of chatbots that insurance companies can use. They are:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Rule-based;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">AI-powered<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>Rule-based chatbots<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, as the name suggests, can do a certain number of commands based on a set of predefined rules.

As a result, they can interact with customers through various means of communication, including audio, text, and instant messaging, and can also answer questions that have never been asked before.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Most often, conversational AI \u201clives\u201d on specially designated pages of websites and applications, such as FAQs or knowledgeable bases.

And in order to intake all these claims, for many years, insurers relied on night call centers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The appearance of conversational AI has changed the situation drastically. What could only be done by hundreds of people a decade ago, now can be done by artificial intelligence software alone.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Chatbots can respond to any questions at any hour. What\u2019s more, they can recognize user intent and build effective real-time conversations with appropriate questions.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Based on responses, chatbots can refine policies, providing users with detailed information on existing options and pricing plans, and link them to a merchant (if necessary).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As a result, customers can avail the best experience possible. Insurance companies, in turn, can reduce operating expenses and focus on other facets of the business.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Simplification\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Simplification<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While it may not seem like it, answering questions in the traditional way takes a lot of time and effort. Even routine customer inquiries that insurance companies respond to every day can turn into long conservations, slowing down the workflow of the whole team.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Add to this a slew of calls with handoffs, and you can see how busy yet non-productive an employee\u2019s day can be.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Chatbots streamline internal complexities. By asking the right questions, they can predict what customers need and provide them with the best options.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What\u2019s more, they can learn at what stage the case becomes complicated and hand it over to a human agent.

However, traditional engagement methods, including static web forms, are still being used. This helps reach a wider audience and collect more data, as well as assess what percentage of users prefer communication with AI.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Reduce_Costs\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Reduce Costs<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While the cost of developing a chatbot isn\u2019t exactly cheap, it\u2019s much cheaper than hiring a department of personnel. First, AI chatbots don\u2019t need to be paid for overnight shifts or vacations. They are always there for you, 27\/4. Second, they can be used across multiple channels, including:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Facebook;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">WhatsApp;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Viber;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Website;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Email;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Text;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Slack.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This means policyholders can get support through any of the channels they are most used to, without the need for live agents to be there. On top of that, AI can detect fraud.

This capability not only gives the insurer an upper hand over the competition but also further reduces costs.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In addition, multilingual customer service allows companies to increase loyal customers and reach far beyond the local market.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Use_Cases_for_AI_Chatbots_in_the_Insurance_Sector\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3 Use Cases for AI Chatbots in the Insurance Sector<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now that we\u2019ve covered the benefits of insurance chatbots, let\u2019s move on to their practical uses.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As you can see, AI provides insurers with a powerful insight into user behavior based on the data it constantly collects. Best of all, the learning ability of insurance chatbots only improves over time, opening up a whole scope of potential applications.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With this in mind, insurers should plan ahead for how they are going to use chatbots, especially at the outset.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Answer_FAQs\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Answer FAQs<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As mentioned earlier, insurance is a rather complex and boring topic that a lot of people find difficult to understand. However, it is only so for those who don\u2019t use AI. Companies that use chatbots to answer FAQs attract more users and have better user acquisition overall.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Since AI chatbots use natural language processing, they can see the user\u2019s intent.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thanks to this, they can not only explain some of the complex issues but also match users with effective solutions. As a result, insurers can deliver better customer service while minimizing the involvement of the team. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">By using natural language processing, AI-powered chatbots can explain complex insurance issues and provide effective solutions to customers. This can improve customer service and minimize the involvement of the insurance team. Companies that offer <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.avenga.com\/industries\/insurance\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">insurance software development services<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> can help insurers create chatbots tailored to their specific needs.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Onboard_New_Users_and_Members\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Onboard New Users and Members<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Chatbots are also very good at helping familiarize new users with the insurer\u2019s services. They can help communicate the benefits of a product. They can also serve as a prompt, helping users sign up for wellness programs and\/or choose the right policy. In addition, chatbots can answer common insurance questions, such as:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How to pay bills;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How to update information;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How to file claims;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How to download a digital ID card, and many more.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Essentially, conversational AI can guide the entire customer journey from start to finish, ensuring that no question is left unanswered.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The support of omnichannel capabilities is an added value of AI. Thanks to this, users can communicate with companies across various channels with no need to reproduce themselves. For companies, an omnichannel feature means they don\u2019t lose customer conversations and have valuable data for improvements.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"File_Claims\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">File Claims<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Everyone who\u2019s ever filed claims knows firsthand how complicated claim processing can be. In fact, it can even take months, not to mention the number of people that the process can involve. With chatbots, however, the entire file management has been made simpler.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Instead of spending weeks completing paperwork, it\u2019s enough to report the claim. Once the virtual assistant has received the information and searches for the relevant policy, it will automatically file a claim on a customer\u2019s behalf.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Aside from that, AI-powered chatbots can assess the insurance type for its eligibility based on the media provided by customers along with supportive documents.
