LexisNexis Risk Solutions and real time health data network, Human API have formed an alliance to offer life insurers with a better suite of risk related data products for their customers.
LexisNexis Risk Solutions data and analytics platform enables life insurers to turn data into actionable insights across the life insurance continuum with a comprehensive view of an individual's background, household and lifestyle. Human API’s comprehensive clinical health data network enables life insurers to retrieve and analyze real time clinical data as a new piece of underwriting evidence.
Together the two platforms empower life insurers with advanced data analytics to make more complex underwriting decisions faster and improve the overall consumer experience.
Human API’s electronic health data provides life insurers with information such as medical history, encounter information, medications, and lab results and LexisNexis risk-related solutions aggregate, analyze and provide insights derived from public records, driving history and credit.
By using both products, life insurers can help lower their underwriting costs, reduce cycle times and drop-out rates and place applicants into appropriate risk classes.
