Three
New Carriers Join E-Z Data’s DataXchange Online
Community
Dallas, TX, November 2, 2006 – E-Z Data,
Inc., a leading provider of front-office systems
for insurance companies, general agents, banks,
investment dealers, agents, and financial
advisors, announced at the NAILBA 25 Annual
Meeting today that three new carriers have been
added to its fast growing community of
DataXchange™ Online users. John Hancock, North
American Company, and Pacific Life have joined
other top carriers that are using DataXchange
Online, a data aggregation solution for the
insurance brokerage industry, to proactively
exchange new business and policy information
with their independent distribution channels.
“North American Company is committed to continuously
improving the service we provide to our agencies,” said
Garth Garlock, Senior Vice President and Chief Marketing
Officer at the carrier. “DataXchange Online gives us the
ability to provide our distributors with updated pending
case status, virtually eliminating the need for
application status requests.”
"We are looking forward to taking advantage of the
new downloads being offered by participating carriers,”
said Scott Weilage, President of National Brokerage
Agencies (NBA). “By directly providing us with pending
data, our carriers are helping us reduce the amount of
work required by our staff to process pending cases. As
a result, we anticipate being able to serve our clients
better by delivering faster application turn around
times.”
DataXchange Online is designed specifically to meet
the insurance brokerage industry’s unique
data-integration needs, serving as a centralized hub
that securely moves critical application and policy
information from insurance carriers to third-party
distributors. With a single interface, distributors can
receive feeds and updates from multiple carriers, while
carriers are able to update multiple BGAs and other
distributors with the latest information. DataXchange
Online is compatible with ACORD and NAILBA data
standards and requires no proprietary software in the
carrier’s data center.
DataXchange Online is used by more than 25 leading
carriers to exchange new business and policy information
with nearly 100 distributors nationwide.
