Insurance Companies Using Social Networks to Detect Fraudulent Claims
February 28th, 2011
Health care investigators are using social networking tools like Facebook and Twitter to detect fraud cases, says a new report from the American Medical Association (AMA). By taking a closer look at the people they insure, investigators are gaining insight into medical liability and other health care scams.
Investigators Are Watching You
Social networks have already become known as the hot spot for employers who want to conduct lightweight background checks on prospective employees, but now these sites are becoming more popular in other areas of business, particularly insurance companies that want to make sure policyholders receiving claims payouts deserve the money.
According to the AMA, now that social media sites like Twitter and Facebook have become immensely popular, and many of its users now feel comfortable enough to share the events of their day, companies have been able to follow their activities to determine whether those who are being paid claims are running health insurance scams.
The insurers initially gain access to patient sites by using online profiling during the underwriting process.

February 20th, 2011
For success in insurance marketing, be sure to make your customer feel appreciated. Here are seven tips to building productive relationships:

Insurance Leads: Leads are people
February 13th, 2011
Leads have been a part of insurance sales for decades now, but there are still a lot of misconceptions about what exactly they are.
People tend to think of insurance leads as a card or an email with contact information. An email address to send a form letter to, or a phone number to call with a scripted message.
Salespeople often treat leads as data, something to be used to boost a bottom line and plug into a database.
And while leads can do a lot for your bottom line, to view them as something you can simply plug into a system and expect a sale to spit out is an unrealistic and unproductive perspective.
People are complicated.
