Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Applied Epic is the account management software that is utilized by my organization. We use it to keep track of our business clients, their insurance policies, accounting, policy submission, correspondence, claims, and contacts. It is basically a one-stop-shop for us to know what the status of each account is, what has been done, and what opportunities we have with each account.

Pros

  • Very thorough collection of information allows for accounts to be qualified properly
  • Notification of upcoming tasks keeps everyone on track with renewals of policies
  • Attachment capabilities allow for items to be filtered per policy type to allow for faster searching

Cons

  • Some of the questions in the applications are repetitive.
  • The manual is not especially user-friendly - our agency is working on a new one for easier navigation.
  • Better integration with our other software programs would be beneficial to our agency.

Likelihood to Recommend

Applied Epic is well suited within an agency where there are many users and lines of business. For us, we have multiple locations and it is easy for two people to go after the same account. With a quick search in Epic, this can be prevented. With an agency as large as ours, it allows for proper timing of renewals and tasks so that customers do not get forgotten and policies are completed on time.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Ours is a growing business and it flexes to meet our changing needs as we expand our customer base and our products and services. Finally, there is one place to keep all of the data and reports related to practice, patients and billing. And of course, the cloud makes it possible for us to capture and keep valuable data no matter how much we have.

Pros

  • Excellent support
  • Extremely time-saving
  • User-friendly

Cons

  • On-boarding and training can be arduous
  • It is a pricey solution
  • Report formats can be a bit janky

Likelihood to Recommend

Again, it is good if you are growing because it can manage different sizes of businesses and patient bases. Keeps us organized to have all of our data and reports in one place. The ability to customize is invaluable.

Using Applied Epic

Rating: 8 out of 10
Incentivized

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Applied Epic is utilized most heavily by our Property & Casualty department as well as our Accounting department. The system is also used by our Employee Benefits team to remit invoices to clients and collect fees. It is our central agency management system and has allowed us to consolidate our storage of documentation as well as streamline workflows across the organization.

Pros

  • Account Management - I like the way the system organizes the data for each account. It is easy to search and find any client we are looking for and then once within that record, it is easy to navigate to the necessary policy or screen.
  • Task Management - once everyone was trained and on the same page, the ability to move tasks within the system from one person to the next really helps with the "passing the baton" from one team member to another. The task will come right up on the initial screen so the user knows they have something new to do.
  • Reporting - the system drives the majority of the reporting we do as an agency and it is great when working within the system.

Cons

  • Employee Benefits Agency Management - we found that Epic could not be used to support our EB business and as such now have a bridge between the two systems. It would be fantastic if that was all integrated into one.
  • Contract Management - its hard to management/update account specific contacts especially for large companies that have changed and many points of contact

Likelihood to Recommend

Agency management for larger P&C driven agencies that are looking for standardization across their business. The system really allows you to track and see when activities are being created and completed, where an account is in the marketing process (or renewal process). It also is a great data warehouse when looking to consolidate.
