Toronto, ON (June 28, 2023) \u2013 CSIO is pleased to announce that the Commercial Lines (CL) Working Group has published business requirements to quote and bind two more commercial segments \u2013 health services and warehousing. Health services include physicians, dentists and physiotherapists, where warehousing covers household goods, refrigeration and transportation terminals \u2013 along with others. This now makes a total of seven industry sectors that CL Data Standards have been published for, with the previous ones being business and professional services, contractors, hospitality, real estate and retail industries.<\/p>\n
The CL Data Standards created by the Working Group automate commercial business quote and bind, improving the customer experience while saving brokers time and money. Once insurers and vendors begin programming the prescribed fields and required data points for quoting and binding in their systems, it will allow commercial brokers to exchange data in a simple, structured format directly from their broker management system (BMS) to the insurer\u2019s system, saving brokers time by eliminating double-entry and reducing errors. With accurate and structured data, insurers\u2019 systems can classify the risk and automate the quoting process.<\/p>\n
The Insurance Bureau of Canada (IBC) created codes that apply to the types of businesses that are categorized under the segments, to help with the quoting process. For health services, the CL Working Group incorporated 64% of the IBC codes, and 61% of IBC warehousing codes into their published requirements, guaranteeing that their Data Standards are applicable to the majority of the businesses for these two segments.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe CL Working Group continues to lead the evolution of CL Data Standards by defining requirements for these additional two segments \u2013 health services and warehousing,\u201d says Robert Tamburro, Product Owner (CSPO) & Digital Solutions Specialist at Unica Insurance and CL Working Group member. \u201cThese are just the latest examples of how this talented team has worked collaboratively to advance CL Data Standards and create greater value for our broker partners and their customers.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Working Group will now move on to create quote and bind requirements for additional industry segments that include farming, fishing, hunting, and logging, which will be available in February 2024.
