Episode 008: Insurance Tech News Roundup, 2024 Q1 Edition

In this 8th episode of the PremiumBytes video podcast, hosts Sudhar and Samir discuss observations and learnings from various news stories at the intersection of insurance and technology that they came across in the first quarter of 2024. The hosts have also begun making the rounds at the Spring conferences and shared observations from the events they attended in 2024 Q1. On the conferences front, the hosts discussed • The Insurance-Canada Technology Forum • The Intercompany Long-Term Care Insurance Conference Association, Inc. (ILTCi) Annual Conference; and • The InsurTech NY Spring Conference A major news items that was discussed was regarding a New York Times story on automakers sharing consumers' driving behavior with insurance companies. The article explores how car manufacturers, including General Motors, collect detailed driving data from internet-connected vehicles and share it with insurance companies, affecting insurance premiums without clear consent from drivers. The data collection often occurs through features like GM's OnStar Smart Driver, which tracks behaviors such as speed and braking intensity. Many drivers are unaware that their data is being shared, feeling misled when they discover the impact on their insurance costs. The issue raises significant privacy concerns and questions about consumer consent, prompting investigations and calls for regulatory scrutiny to address potentially deceptive practices. The following are the other media and news items references in the episode: • TEFCA And The Commoditization Of Healthcare Data • Survey: Life insurers want to be better at meeting technology challenges • Automakers Are Sharing Consumers’ Driving Behavior With Insurance Companies • Request Your LexisNexis Consumer Disclosure Report Online • The Roth 401(k) Landscape Has Undergone Major Changes. Here’s What You Need To Know
