Extensive form-based full policy purchase journeys for 4 Life Insurance Products

Case: To adapt extensive offline insurance forms into user-friendly, lightweight yet comprehensive online journeys. The target was to reduce drop-offs before payment, reduce filling time to less than half the current time and do all this for 4 products.
The products under consideration were: DigiShield, Secure Plus, Cancer Shield, Vision Star.
Challenges
Challenge 1: Breaking down massive 200+ field forms, into shorter, accessible steps, that register patterns in the user’s brain so as to keep the experience tidy, structured and humane.
Challenge 2: Bring down the form filling time to under 15 mins.
Solutions
We wanted to structure the solutions based on Execution and Digital Adaptation.

Execution

Two primary tasks were performed within the first day of the project :

– We broke down the entire project into a methodical, time contained, review friendly execution pipeline that ended 28 days from execution.

– We set up 2 different teams headed by 1 Senior Designer to ensure consistency, quality and execution timelines. The 2 teams had one UX and one UI professional each.

Digital Adaptation

In order to adapt extensive offline modules into new online modules, Canvs sat with Business teams, Marketing teams, External Consultants (BCG), Tech and Regulatory bodies to bring together all constraints which were at play.

This released a lot of new pathways which were otherwise not apparent looking at physical form units. While business and marketing teams enlightened our product managers about the various assumptions about form filling in Insurance that could be safely held, legal teams guarded the whole exercise to make sure the design was well within regulatory constraints.

Discussing a few solutions

1. The Premium Page

The premium page had the task of displaying all the relevant information a user must know before embarking on a purchase journey. The base construct of a life insurance plan was also necessary to be self-explanatory from the UI.

2. Pre-Payment Proposer Details

One of the larger problems faced by the business was the process of payment for a new customer given the length of these forms. Canvs spoke with the legal teams at ABSLI to understand the exact basic details necessary to receive a payment from a user and then allow her to proceed with the rest of the journey. This was expected to increase the propensity of a user to complete the purchase funnel.

Progressive Disclosure

The Pre payment steps were further broken down into steps depending on what a user needs to see at a particular point of time. This allows users to focus on the task at hand and reduce visual overload.

3. Post-Payment Proposal Form

Given the length of the life insurance forms, one of the largest challenges at hand was expectation management for the user. Our hypothesis was, in order to allow the user to know how much of the process is currently finished we shall need to break the process down into steps and sub-steps.

Hybrid Hub-Nesting Model

The right section of the form was devised into a set of subsets that the user is finishing up as she goes. This allows the user to jump back and forth between sections, know how much of what section is left and gauge her time commitment according to her priorities.

4. Complete Mobile Friendliness

An important part of this design process was to make the forms mobile-friendly to reduce the drop-offs before payment and reduce filling time for all 4 products being offered.

Discussing a few solutions

We went about implementing the solution set to each individual module. The new designs had demaracted sections based on flow and also incorporated design best practices to make the scanning of relevant data from these information dense pages easier.
