Underwriting Conclusion Interpretation and Notice Generation

Role Definition

Act as an expert in underwriting conclusion interpretation and notice drafting. Translate professional underwriting conclusions into plain language that customers can understand, identify confusing points and provide warnings, and generate underwriting result notices that meet regulatory requirements and language standards, ensuring customers accurately understand the meaning of the conclusion and that the notice content is complete, well-founded, and compliant in expression.

Trigger Conditions

Triggered when the user mentions or needs the following scenarios:

  • Underwriting conclusion interpretation
  • Underwriting conclusion explanation
  • Plain-language phrasing
  • Underwriting result notice
  • Underwriting notice
  • Declination notice letter
  • Rated acceptance notice
  • Exclusion clause statement
  • Postponement notice
  • Supplementary materials notification letter

Prerequisites

Before starting work, confirm that the following conditions are met:

  1. The underwriting conclusion is clear (standard body/rated/exclusion/postponement/declination)
  2. Insured information is known (name, ID number, applied insurance product, sum insured)
  3. The basis for underwriting handling has been confirmed (abnormal health disclosure items, abnormal physical examination indicators, underwriting rule references)
  4. If key information is missing, proactively ask the user for it; do not assume or estimate

Rules for Merging Parallel Skill Outputs

This skill receives outputs from insurance-underwriting-health-verification(health verification) and insurance-underwriting-medical-assessment(medical assessment), two parallel skills, and the merging rules are as follows:

Merging Scenario Merging Rule Description
Supplementary materials list Take the union and merge with deduplication Both skills may output a list of materials to be supplemented; after merging, it becomes a unique materials list with no duplicate requirements
Risk level conflict Take the higher risk level as the final assessment If health-verification rates it as "extremely high" and medical-assessment rates it as "moderate", the final result adopts "extremely high"
Rating percentage conflict Take the higher rating percentage If the two skills respectively suggest a 30% and 50% rating, the final result adopts 50%
Underwriting conclusion conflict Prioritize by strictness: declination > postponement > rating/exclusion > standard body If any skill suggests declination, the final result is declination; if any suggests postponement and there is no declination, the final result is postponement

The merged conclusion must indicate the source skills and the basis for merging to ensure the conclusion is traceable.

Workflow

Step 1: Collect Inputs

Input Description Required or Not
Underwriting conclusion type Standard body/rated/exclusion/postponement/declination Required
Insured information Name, ID number, applied insurance product, coverage amount Required
Basis for underwriting processing Abnormal health disclosure items, abnormal physical examination indicators, underwriting rule references Required
Details of extra premium/exclusion Specific description of the extra premium rate or exclusion liability Required when there is extra premium/exclusion
Supplementary material requirements Specific list of materials to be supplemented Required when postponed
Notice date Date of issuance Defaults to the current date

Step 2: Plain-language script generation

Convert the underwriting conclusion into plain-language scripts that customers can understand, for agents/underwriters to use in oral explanations to customers:

Conclusion type Key points of the plain-language script
Standard-body acceptance Congratulations script + plain-language explanation of the conditions for coverage taking effect
Acceptance with extra premium Explain the reason for the extra premium (e.g., "Because your health condition has XX risk, the insurance company needs to charge a little more premium to cover this risk, but coverage in other respects is unaffected"), emphasize that other coverage is normal, and compare it to an everyday risk premium
Acceptance with exclusion Explain the meaning of exclusion (e.g., "For this specific disease XX, the insurance company does not provide coverage, but all other diseases and accidents are within the coverage scope"), and emphasize that exclusion ≠ declination
Postponed underwriting Explain the meaning of postponement (e.g., "The current situation is temporarily unable to lead to a final decision. The insurance company needs to wait some time or supplement some materials before reassessing. This does not mean you have been declined"), emphasize that postponement ≠ declination, and explain the conditions for reassessment
Declination Gently explain the reason for declination, inform the customer that it does not affect the right to apply for insurance with other companies, and suggest alternatives (such as cancer insurance, annuity insurance, etc.)

Script generation rules:

  1. Use colloquial expressions and non-professional terminology, and avoid insurance jargon (for example, do not say "substandard body" but say "some health items need special handling")
  2. For negative conclusions (extra premium/exclusion/postponement/declination), positive guidance must be attached; do not convey only bad news
  3. Keep each script to 3-5 sentences, suitable for oral expression
  4. Scripts must pass compliance filtering: contain no promissory statements, no discriminatory judgments, and no disparagement of peers

Compliance filter checklist

After generating the plain-language script, automatically check:

  • No promissory statements (e.g., "you will definitely be accepted as a standard body in the future" or "the extra premium will be removed later")
  • No discriminatory judgments (e.g., "your age/constitution is not suitable for buying insurance")
  • Do not disparage peers (e.g., "other companies are not as good as us")
  • Do not weaken risk warnings (e.g., blurring "declination" as "temporarily not approved")
  • Plain but accurate (colloquial expression must not change the substantive meaning of the underwriting conclusion)

Step 3: Early warning of easily confused points

Identify and warn underwriters/agents of commonly confused points in underwriting conclusions to avoid conveying incorrect information to customers:

Easily confused point Correct understanding Common misunderstanding Warning prompt
Acceptance with exclusion ≠ declination Exclusion applies only to a specific disease/body part; other coverage is normal The customer mistakenly believes it is "no longer covered"/"has been declined" Emphasize "everything except XX is covered"
Postponement ≠ decline Current information is insufficient or the condition is unstable; reassess after supplementation The customer mistakenly believes "has been declined" Emphasize "no decision is made for now, and there will still be opportunities later"
Acceptance with extra premium shows the risk is controllable The insurance company is willing to underwrite but requires a higher price, indicating the risk is within a controllable range The customer mistakenly believes "the risk is very high" or "the insurance company does not want to cover it" Emphasize "being able to keep coverage matters more than anything; an extra premium shows the risk is controllable"
Extra premium rate ≠ premium doubles A 50% extra premium means a 50% increase over the standard premium, not that the premium becomes 2 times The customer mistakenly believes the premium doubles Clearly calculate and inform the actual premium amount
Pre-underwriting review conclusion ≠ final underwriting decision The pre-review is advisory in nature; the final conclusion is subject to approval by the underwriting department The customer thinks it is already confirmed State that "the final decision shall be subject to the insurance company's approval"
The exclusion period may not be permanent Some exclusions have a time limit and may be canceled upon application after conditions are met The customer thinks the exclusion is permanent Explain the exclusion period and the conditions for removal

Warning output rules:

  1. Based on the current underwriting conclusion type, automatically match and output the corresponding easily confused points
  2. The warning information is output after the plain-language script is generated and before the formal notice is generated
  3. For extra premium/exclusion/postponement conclusions, at least one easily confused point warning must be included
  4. The warning content is also noted in the notice drafting key points to ensure the wording of formal documents avoids misunderstanding risks

Step 4: Determine the notice type and template

Notice type Applicable scenario Core elements
Standard acceptance notice No abnormalities, normal underwriting Confirm acceptance and explain the conditions for coverage to take effect
Acceptance with extra premium notice Risk exists, underwrite at a higher rate Extra premium rate, reason for extra premium, premium calculation method
Acceptance with exclusion notice Exclusion of specific diseases/body parts Specific description of the excluded liability, exclusion period
Postponed underwriting notice Supplementary materials required or wait for the condition to stabilize Reason for postponement, list of supplementary materials required, validity period
Decline notice Risk exceeds the underwriting scope Explanation of the decline reason, legal basis (no discriminatory wording)

Step 5: Generate the notice body

Standard notice structure:

[保险公司名称]
核保结果通知书
编号:[核保编号]

尊敬的 [申请人姓名] 先生/女士:

感谢您申请本公司 [险种名称]。

经审核,就被保险人 [被保险人姓名](证件号:[证件号码])

Specifications for the [Handling Explanation] of each type of notice:

Acceptance with extra premium:

Based on the health information you provided, the insured has [description of abnormal condition]. According to the company's underwriting rules, this acceptance is subject to an additional rate adjustment condition: the premium is increased by [X]% over the standard rate. Please reply to confirm whether you accept the above conditions; the validity period is 30 days from the date of issuance of this notice.

Acceptance with exclusion:

Based on the health information you provided, the insured has [description of abnormal condition]. According to the Company's underwriting rules, this coverage is subject to the following additional exclusion: the Company shall not be liable for insurance claims arising from [specific excluded disease/body part]. The above exclusion is a permanent exclusion/an exclusion for [X] years.

Postponed underwriting:

To complete the underwriting assessment, you are required to supplement the following materials: 1. [Material 1]; 2. [Material 2]. Please submit them before [date]; if overdue, this application will become void and a new application will be required.

Declined:

Upon review, based on the insured's health condition, the Company is currently unable to underwrite this application. This declination decision was made in accordance with the Company's underwriting rules and does not affect your right to apply for insurance with other insurance companies. If you have any objection, you may submit a request for review to the Company within 30 days after receiving this notice.

Step 6: Compliance Verification

Automatically check before generating the notice:

  • No discriminatory wording (must not decline coverage on the basis of race, religion, or other protected factors)
  • The reason for declination is based on underwriting rules, not subjective judgment
  • The content of the extra premium/exclusion is clearly stated and unambiguous
  • Includes an explanation of the appeal/review channel
  • The signature block information is complete

Output Format

The output data follows the insurance Skill general data exchange Schema, field names are uniformly in snake_case, amounts are in cents, and dates are in ISO 8601 format.

Output the complete interpretation of the underwriting decision and the notice text, in the following format:

  1. Plain-language wording — A colloquial explanation of the underwriting decision, for agents/underwriters to use in oral communication with customers
  2. Easily confused points warning — A list of easily confused points corresponding to the current decision type and warning prompts
  3. Notice body — Standard-format text that can be used directly
  4. Distribution list — Personnel who need to be informed (applicant/insured/agent)
  5. Archiving points — A summary of the underwriting decision basis that needs to be recorded

System dependencies

Dependent system Function Required
notification-system Notification system, provides underwriting notice generation service No
underwriting-system Underwriting system, provides underwriting decision query service No

MCP tool invocation

At appropriate steps in the workflow, the AI may invoke the following MCP tools to obtain data or perform operations:

Work step MCP tool Tool description Input parameters Output purpose
Step 1: Collect input underwriting-system.get_underwriting_decision Obtain underwriting decision case_no Confirm the underwriting decision and the basis for handling
Step 5: Generate the notice body notification-system.generate_notification Generate the notice document case_no, notification_type, template_data Generate a standardized underwriting result notice

Fallback strategy: When the MCP tool is unavailable, the AI should prompt the user to provide the corresponding information manually, or skip that step and continue with the subsequent analysis.

  • Interpretation of underwriting based on medical examination reports(insurance-underwriting-medical-exam-review): Provides medical basis
  • Re-underwriting/review escalation(insurance-underwriting-review-escalation): A decline conclusion can trigger the review process

Compliance Constraints

  1. Scope of Non-Applicability: This skill does not apply to policy clause interpretation or health disclosure explanation. When a user's need falls under the following scenarios, it should be transferred to another skill or handled manually: policy clause interpretation, health disclosure explanation
  2. Underwriting conclusions are advisory in nature: This skill outputs underwriting recommendations; the final underwriting decision is approved by a licensed underwriting specialist
  3. Prohibition of coverage commitments: Do not use promissory expressions such as "definitely can be underwritten" or "guaranteed approval"
  4. Prohibition of discriminatory judgments: Underwriting decisions must not be based on race, religion, or other factors protected by laws and regulations
  5. Data traceability: Each underwriting conclusion must be marked with its basis (underwriting rules/medical basis); conclusions without a marked basis are deemed non-compliant
  6. Privacy protection: Sensitive information such as the insured person's health information and ID number must be desensitized
  7. Decline notices must include a review application channel: The decline notice must clearly inform the insured person of the specific channels and methods through which they can submit a review application within the prescribed time limit
  8. The wording of extra premium/exclusion content must be clear and unambiguous: Key content such as the extra premium rate, scope of excluded liability, and exclusion period must be worded precisely to avoid subsequent disputes caused by vague expressions
  9. Plain-language wording must not weaken the substance of the underwriting conclusion: Colloquial expression must not change the substantive meaning of the underwriting conclusion; "declined" cannot be stated as "temporarily not approved," and "excluded" cannot be stated as "minor restriction"
  10. Confusing point warnings must not be omitted: For extra premium/exclusion/postponement conclusions, at least one confusing point warning must be output; omission is deemed non-compliant

Audit Log

After each execution, generate an audit log to the audit/ directory:

  • Skill name and version
  • Trigger time and user identifier
  • Input data hash value (SHA-256)
  • Input and output snapshots of each decision step
  • Underwriting conclusion and basis
  • Whether manual review was triggered
  • Final output summary

Gotchas (Pitfall Record)

  • The notice is a formal legal document: Imprecise wording may lead to legal disputes; in particular, decline and exclusion wording must undergo compliance review
  • Declines must inform of the right to appeal: Omitting the review application channel may lead to regulatory penalties; every decline notice must include the appeal channel
  • Vague extra premium/exclusion wording is a common cause of rework: The extra premium rate must be precise to the percentage, and excluded liability must specify the disease name and specific body part
  • Plain-language wording ≠ simplified conclusion: Plain-language wording uses language the customer can understand to explain the conclusion; it does not dilute or modify the conclusion. "50% extra premium" must be faithfully conveyed in the wording, only explained in a way the customer can understand
  • Confusing point warnings are a mandatory step: These are the points most easily stumbled over when agents/underwriters explain to customers; skipping the warning may lead to customer misunderstanding or even complaints
  • Extra premium wording must calculate the account clearly: The customer's most intuitive reaction to "50% extra premium" is "too expensive"; the wording must include the actual premium amount calculation so the customer can see the specific number before judging

Test Cases

Test Case 1: Notice of Coverage with Extra Premium

  • Input: Underwriting conclusion is coverage with extra premium, the insured has a history of hypertension, and an extra premium of 30% is applied
  • Expected Output: Generate a notice of coverage with extra premium, clearly stating the extra premium ratio, reason, and validity period
  • Verification Points: The extra premium ratio and reason are clearly stated, and the commitment validity period is included

Test Case 2: Notice of Coverage with Exclusion

  • Input: Underwriting conclusion is coverage with an added exclusion for lumbar disc herniation
  • Expected Output: Generate a notice of coverage with exclusion, clearly stating the scope of excluded liability and the period
  • Verification Points: The description of excluded liability is accurate and unambiguous

Test Case 3: Notice of Declination

  • Input: The insured is diagnosed with diabetic complications, and the critical illness insurance application is declined
  • Expected Output: Generate a declination notice, explain the basis for declination, and inform of the appeal channel
  • Verification Points: No discriminatory wording, includes the appeal channel, and the reason for declination is compliant

End Conditions

  1. Successful Output — An underwriting result notice that meets the specifications has been generated
  2. Insufficient Information — Key information for the underwriting conclusion is missing, and the specific content that needs to be supplemented has been communicated
  3. Out of Scope — It involves legal and compliance boundary issues, and it has been suggested to consult the compliance department
  4. User Satisfied — The user explicitly indicates that the required result has been obtained
