Advanced Techs to Power Your Health Insurance Solution

ScienceSoft’s Insurance IT Consultant and Business Analyst

McKinsey predicts that by 2030, almost all insurance underwriting tasks and more than half of claims settlement workflows will be automated, mainly thanks to AI. Although over 90% of insurers are already using or planning to use AI, most deployments are small-scale, single-purpose tools like chatbots or standalone analytics components. This means that insurers that commit to AI-driven automation at the enterprise scale can still significantly outpace their competitors.

However, to succeed in AI initiatives, you first need secure, standardized data acquisition pipelines and a high-performing data processing environment capable of running AI-supported operations at scale. At ScienceSoft, we start insurance AI projects with an all-around audit of your data management framework, define the missing components critical for the seamless AI system functioning, and help establish a secure and compliant data infrastructure.

FAQ About Health Insurance Software Development

Do we really need custom health insurance software when there are ready-made tools on the market?

Based on what we heard from our clients in the insurance field, these are the six most widespread limitations of OOTB software that caused them to go for custom development:

  • The inability to introduce custom automation rules (e.g., for risk scoring, claim approval) and automate highly specific tasks like medical image analysis for loss adjustment and fraud detection.
  • The lack of support for innovative insurance models like parametric health insurance and health microinsurance.
  • The excessive cost or technical impossibility of integrating OOTB software with legacy business systems.
  • The lack of software compliance with region-specific regulations like NYDFS, CCPA, GDPR.
  • Limited or costly software scalability.
  • The need to purchase individual user subscriptions for large teams, resulting in high software TCO in the long run.

At ScienceSoft, we analyze the feasibility of custom health insurance software development on a case-by-case basis to guarantee the expected economic value for our clients. If off-the-shelf software appears to be a better fit for our client’s case, we are ready to assist with selecting and implementing the optimal solution.

What are your cooperation models for health insurance software projects?

Depending on the client’s needs, ScienceSoft can provide full outsourcing of health insurance software development, a dedicated team to take over a part of the development project, or staff augmentation with our best talents. Explore the detailed comparison table composed by our consultants to understand the specifics of each sourcing approach.

How do you ensure regulatory compliance?

We design custom health insurance solutions with HIPAA, GDPR, NYDFS, and other legal requirements in mind, ensure 95%+ test coverage for the coded compliance rules, and run compliance pre-audit before the software launch. If you are entering an emerging market, we go the extra mile to investigate its health insurance regulations and determine the relevant compliance requirements to cover. We can also take over ongoing compliance maintenance. Visit our dedicated page to learn how we ensure BFSI software compliance at each SDLC stage.

Will you sign an NDA?

Sure. We are ready to sign an NDA before an introductory call to legally protect your sensitive data from the onset.
