Health & Life Lagging Behind in Connected Insurance Race – For Now

The statistical picture of the health and life region of insurance is, in some ways, diametrically opposed to that of auto insurance – whereas 78% of auto insurers have at least one IoT product on the market and 6% of them have already built up revenue streams of over US$1bn per year, no health or life company has broken the billion-dollar threshold.

The psychological attitude in this sector might be summed up as: IoT might very well not be here to stay, but if it is, it’s really going to shake up our business models. As it seeks to keep in-step with advances being made in other lines, what does the future hold for connected health and life insurance?

Insurance Nexus are releasing an exclusive Connected Health & Life Insurance Industry Snapshot for 2019, developed as part of the research conducted for the Connected Insurance Report.

The Connected Insurance Report was researched and produced in by Insurance Nexus is collaboration with the IoT Insurance Observatory. It is the first of its kind to conceive of insurance IoT holistically, as a paradigm shift necessitating changes in insurer business models, organisational structures and technology stacks. We surveyed the experiences of 500+ insurers and reinsurers to assess where they sit in the connected insurance market and to extract the challenges they face and their stories of success.

Along with a panel of 20 industry leaders who have been operating at the sharp end of the IoT revolution, we looked at these hurdles and opportunities and pulled them apart to give you case studies with actionable insights which will help guide your decision-making as you tackle your own strategic milestones.
