AI BPO for Insurance Operations
Artificial Intelligence has changed how back-office operations scale. Selectsys AI BPO combines automation, AI tools, and trained insurance staff to deliver speed, accuracy, and control.
By linking AI OCR, Submission Triage, and AI Assist with credentialed BPO Pods, Selectsys turns manual processes into intelligent workflows that execute in real time with SLA and QA visibility.
What AI BPO Means
AI BPO is the fusion of automation and human judgment. Automation handles repeatable, structured work while trained professionals handle validation, decisioning, and client communication.
How it works:
- AI OCR extracts data from documents and forms.
- Submission Triage evaluates completeness and appetite.
- AI Assist provides guideline suggestions and missing data checks.
- BPO Pods complete processing, endorsement, and service tasks.
- Control Tower tracks progress, exceptions, and turnaround metrics.
Each workflow benefits from automation without losing human oversight.
Example Workflows Automated with AI BPO
- Submission intake and document extraction
- Appetite and eligibility checks
- Quote and bind-pack assembly
- Endorsement and COI processing
- Renewal and remarketing
- Analytics and PQI reporting
AI handles the first 60 to 70 percent of data flow, while human teams handle the remainder to ensure compliance and accuracy.
Integration with EI, RQB, and Control Tower
- EI (Policy Admin and Forms): AI BPO teams operate directly in EI for endorsements, renewals, and policy issuance.
- RQB: automation pre-fills rating and quoting data for faster turnaround.
- Control Tower: tracks SLA compliance and exceptions in real time.
- Analytics and PQI: monitors cycle time and accuracy scores for continuous improvement.
This creates a closed-loop model combining automation, execution, and measurement.
