Reinsurance Group of America, Incorporated (NYSE: RGA), a leading global life reinsurer, is teaming up with MIB Group, Inc. (MIB), the life and health insurance industry's most trusted and secure resource for data-driven risk management services, to develop a synergistic electronic health record solution for improving applicant risk assessment and expediting the underwriting process for underwriters and applicants alike.

“As the insurance industry’s leading data resource, MIB is the ideal partner for RGA’s scoring expertise”

By offering MIB’s data network capabilities and RGA’s Digital Health Data scoring capability together, carriers will benefit from the synergies of a new data source and a powerful risk assessment tool for use in underwriting.

“As the insurance industry’s leading data resource, MIB is the ideal partner for RGA’s scoring expertise,” said David P. Wheeler, Executive Vice President and Head of U.S. Mortality Markets, RGA. “Our respective capabilities address a twofold challenge – accessing sources of electronic health records and transforming them into actionable information for underwriting.”

“By working with RGA and MIB, carriers will obtain powerful information that will streamline their underwriting processes, allowing them to keep up with changing consumer buying preferences and the movement to digital environments,” said Lee Oliphant, President and Chief Executive Officer, MIB Group, Inc.

The RGA and MIB electronic health record solutions will be available on a pilot basis starting in April 2019. MIB’s Electronic Health Records (EHR) Service and RGA’s Digital Health Data scoring are separate and distinct services available from MIB and RGA respectively. Customers may subscribe to one or both services. MIB’s EHR Service will be provided by MIB, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of MIB Group, Inc. to members of MIB Group, Inc.
