Billing Remains an Essential Part of Insurer Service Strategies: Aite-Novarica Group

Many vendors have re-architected their billing offerings to modernize technology, normalize technical approaches, and enhance solution configurability: Aite-Novarica Group profiles 14 vendor solutions in latest Market Navigator report

Boston, MA (Nov. 16, 2021) – The retail market has raised the customer service bar. Insurers want to create retail-like experiences and customers now expect ease of use and self-service even for complex transactions. In its latest Novarica Market Navigator, Property/Casualty Billing Systems, research and advisory firm Aite-Novarica Group provides an overview of the available stand-alone billing systems for US property/casualty insurers, as well as detailed profiles of 14 vendor solutions.

“At least half of insurers now consider billing a customer service issue rather than a purely financial issue,” says Stuart Rose, Strategic Advisor at Aite-Novarica Group and co-author of Aite-Novarica Group’s new report. “Online self-service is a baseline expectation of competent providers, and more consumers than ever expect mobile self-service. These factors make billing a critical component of digital transformation.”

“Vendors are implementing next-generation user experiences for agents, insureds, and employees,” adds co-author Martin Higgins. “They are improving architectures by providing microservices and enabling headless billing function implementations. These changes aim to give insurers more control over the user experience.”
