The Uses of Computers in Insurance


The Uses of Computers in Insurance

    • Computers have helped to revolutionize aspects of the computer industry.
      Computers have helped to streamline the insurance industry, making it possible for insurance companies and the agencies that represent them to take on more clients and provide them faster service. Computers serve a variety of key functions within the insurance industry, and will likely continue to do so in the future.

    Record-Keeping

    • Computers provide insurance agents and their staff members with a convenient way to store customer records. Their ability to encrypt data and store it in a database lets the companies keep client records strictly confidential. The days of needing stacks of file cabinets for storing information have long since passed. Computers save space and also make data available to agents and underwriters with the touch of a button.
