Will Hiring a Board-Certified Specialist Improve Your Company's Unfavorable Underwriting Results?
Abstract:
Some underwriting departments believe hiring a board-certified specialist from a clinical background will improve their life underwriting, expectancy estimations, and profitability. This is not a panacea for solving adverse underwriting expectations. The need is a potential red flag indicating internal underwriting deficiencies. The specialist comes with their own limitations, the most prominent being the lack of any experience in insurance medicine and risk selection. You will be depending on the least experienced medical director to correct your problems. Likely, one or more internal underwriting practices could be the root cause of the unfavorable results.
