What is Teleunderwriting and How Does it Work?

Teleunderwriting is a streamlined alternative to the traditional application process. It promotes a complete and accurate application through a single fact-finding interview, which enables fast and fair underwriting decisions.

• Part A: You and your client provide basic information to get things started.
• Part B: Your client talks by telephone with a trained and experienced ExamOne interviewer to provide the detailed information essential for application completion.

By utilizing a professional telephone interview process, you will:

• Increase productivity
  You will spend less time on paperwork and more time doing what you do best – meeting with clients and selling.
• Improve turnaround time
  Teleunderwriting provides more detailed information to the underwriters, which reduces the need for the most time-encompassing requirements.
• Alleviate awkwardness
  Applicants often prefer providing personal information to a third-party interviewer rather than face-to-face with an agent who may be a friend or associate.

Our new Teleunderwriting Agent Guide (Form 9238) walks you through the four easy steps of using the new teleapplication. You’ll also want to provide your client with our Teleunderwriting Consumer Guide (Form 9239) to help explain the process and prepare your client for a successful interview. Both forms are available through the Supply Department or by contacting your DI Sales Team at 1-800-437-7355.

*Bonus will be paid with month-end commission. National Accounts are not participating.
