Insurers are investing in the skills that will be crucial to help Britain thrive in the 21st century. By investing in technology, health insurers support a competitive and sustainable economy and help to educate and train the workforce of the future.
Technology also empowers consumers who have more choice, more opportunities to engage with their own health and are able to make a claim using faster and more intuitive methods.
We are witnessing real improvements in the way in which people manage their own health. As technology improves and becomes more integrated into day-to-day activities, people are more likely to engage with their health and wellbeing though apps and wearable devices. This allows users to build a picture of their health status and get tailored advice from their insurer on how to maintain or improve it.
