Bupa Group Risk launches speedy online quote system
27 March 2007
Bupa Group Risk today launched a new online system that enables intermediaries to generate a quote and purchase cover within 30 minutes – nearly 500 times faster than the industry standard of 10 days.
The online system offers intermediaries access to a range of group protection products suitable for smaller schemes of between five and 100 lives.
Key features of the system include:
- competitive prices for intermediaries who use the new online system
- a simplified range of products to make it easy to purchase cover online
- the facility for intermediaries to adjust their level of commission up to a total of 20 percent
- the facility for intermediaries to generate as many variations on the quote as they need
Graham Clark, director of Bupa Group Risk, said: "The new online system will make it easy for brokers to service their clients more effectively. It is designed to be flexible and convenient, using a simple six step process to allow intermediaries to generate quotes quickly and at a time that suits them. This is just the start of the development of our online system; we plan to extend it further to offer online administration and claims tracking and we are working closely with intermediaries to ensure the new system meets their needs."
To register to use the system intermediaries should visit www.bupa.co.uk/groupriskonline. For further information intermediaries can call the Bupa Group Risk Sales Team on 0800 33 2000, press option two.
