Job Context & Major Challenges

About the Health Insurance Industry
- While the current market sees more than 15 non-life players in the private space and 5 exclusive private players in the health insurance space trying to capture a sizable market share, the nationalised service provider (6) remains a strong competitor. In addition to this the business dynamics are such that the overall market on an annual basis which is to the tune of roughly 10,000 Crs sees close to 85 % of the business renewing with the existing service provider itself. This narrows down the opportunity of the fresh business actually being seriously fought in the market to approximately 1500 odd Crs.
Market Opportunities - With the advent of medical advancements, lifestyle changes, change in Indian socio
- economic scenario and Indian healthcare space, and the insurers are facing challenges to cater to the needs of this diverse clientele. Increasingly Indian customers have started considering health insurance partners as ententions of health advisers. In this scenario it becomes extremely important to understand their psyche and then provide tailored solutions with wellness benefits which would help them meet their end objectives and bring in profitable revenue source for the company.
About the Aditya Birla Health Insurance
- Aditya Birla Health Insurance Co. Limited (ABHICL) was incorporated in 2015 as a 51:49 joint venture between Aditya Birla Capital Limited (ABCL) and MMI Strategic Investments (Pty) Ltd. ABHICL commenced its operations in October 2016.
ABHICL has entered the competitive health insurance market with an aim to expand the category to wider customer segments, beyond the ones that health insurance companies traditionally have marketed to. As the 6th entrant in a category with well-established players, ABHICL is creating differentiation and equity for itself though the unique business proposition of “Health Insurance for All”, a one of a kind proposition in India at the moment. This is a philosophy that is being built through every single consumer touch point and into every single backend process of the company to ensure a customer’s experience of our proposition is continuous and seamless.
Challenges
- Distribution reach will be the key to future growth acceleration for insurance companies as existing geographies get saturated and the focus shifts to new under penetrated geographies.
Hence the key challenge to recruit qualified insurance agents, especially in the semi-urban / rural markets and also to combat the increasing attrition rate particularly when new players are entering the market
Distribution: How we create specific distribution models to penetrate different market segments remains a challenge. Motivation to channel partners to place business with the co. Activate and manage agent based distribution channel across the country
Long term and short term strategic plans to increase the market share and profitability in line with the company’s business objectives.
Since health business is purely retail, maintaining daily rhythms and adding value every day to engage FLS/advisors so that they do required inputs as per the sales process is a challenge.
Considering FLS quality and delivery timelines, coaching, handholding and developing a new FLS takes lot of time and energy.
Infrastructure constraints
Driving a balanced business growth in order to achieve the sales goals in alignment with mandated/desired market conduct and quality of business.
Recurrent changes in regulatory environment and consequently changed product portfolios requiring strategic & tactical changes in selling techniques/pitch
Managing expectations of high performers: high performers expectation rises every year and to satisfy it, by getting innovative ideas is a biggest challenge
Driving high rates of YOY renewals in turbulent market conditions
