Pega Customer Service for Insurance case types

Updated on January 7, 2022

Pega Customer Service for Insurance includes several standard case types. These case types are available for selection within the New Application wizard when you create your implementation application. Depending on your service needs, you might include all, none, or a subset of these case types in your application. In addition, you can create new case types to meet your service needs.

Pega Customer Service for Insurance Product Overview

The following table lists the insurance service requests that are available with Pega Customer Service for Insurance. These service requests are created in the Insurance application and might be initiated in your front office or your back office. More complex service request processes that are initiated in the front office are ultimately routed to the back office for form verification, triage, approval, and resolution. Note that many service request types are available for selection in both the Personal Auto and Term & Whole Life bundles in the New Application Wizard. Regardless of bundle association, you can enable as many or as few of the service requests as you choose and mix from each bundle if necessary.
