Prerequisites
Before starting work, confirm that the following conditions are met:
- Medical materials have been provided (physical examination reports, medical record materials, pathological materials, etc.; text descriptions or image uploads are acceptable)
- The applied insurance type has been confirmed (critical illness insurance/medical insurance/life insurance/accident insurance)
- If key information is missing, proactively ask the user for it; do not assume or estimate
Workflow
Step 1: Collect Inputs
| Input | Description | Required or Not |
|---|---|---|
| Medical materials | Physical examination reports, medical record materials, pathological materials (text descriptions or image uploads) | Required |
| Applied insurance type | Critical illness insurance/medical insurance/life insurance/accident insurance | Required |
| Applied insured amount | Underwriting insured amount range | Recommended to fill in |
| Insured's age/gender | Affects basic risk determination | Recommended to fill in |
| Insured's occupation | Affects occupational risk weight assessment | Recommended to fill in |
| Health disclosure content | Item-by-item disclosure results, including details of positive disclosure items | Recommended to fill in |
| Annual income | Ten thousand yuan, used for financial underwriting reasonableness verification | Optional |
Step 2: Document Parsing and Information Extraction
Conduct in-depth structured parsing of the provided medical materials, identify the document type, and extract key information.
Document Type Identification and Extraction
| Document Type | Extraction Focus | Common Risk Points |
|---|---|---|
| Physical examination report | Abnormal indicators, BMI, blood pressure, blood glucose, nodules, tumor markers | Critical values of indicators, multiple abnormalities, timeliness of the report |
| Medical record materials | Diagnosis, treatment records, medication history, surgical records | Inconsistency between diagnosis and disclosure, missed diagnosis |
| Pathology materials | Pathological type, grade, immunohistochemistry results | Grade is directly related to the underwriting conclusion |
| Health disclosure | Positive disclosure items, past medical history, family medical history | Failure to disclose truthfully, omitted disclosure |
| Imaging reports | Nodule size/grade, description of space-occupying lesions | Vague descriptions require supplementary specialist evaluation |
OCR extraction (image-type materials)
When medical materials are provided in image form, use OCR tools for text extraction and structured data extraction:
- Call
ocr-service.extract_textto perform OCR text extraction on the image - Call
ocr-service.extract_structured_datato extract structured fields by document type (doc_type: physical examination report/medical record/pathology report) - Verify the completeness and accuracy of the OCR extraction results; key values (such as blood pressure values, blood glucose values, nodule dimensions) require secondary confirmation
Step 3: Classification and organization of physical examination indicators (executed automatically internally)
Classify the indicators in the physical examination report by system:
| System classification | Typical indicators |
|---|---|
| Cardiovascular system | Blood pressure, electrocardiogram, echocardiography, myocardial enzymes |
| Metabolic system | Fasting blood glucose, glycated hemoglobin, four lipid items, uric acid |
| Liver function system | Transaminases (ALT/AST), bilirubin, hepatitis B markers |
| Kidney function system | Creatinine, blood urea nitrogen, urine protein, renal ultrasound |
| Tumor markers | AFP, CEA, CA125, PSA, etc. |
| Imaging | Chest CT/X-ray, abdominal ultrasound, thyroid ultrasound, breast ultrasound |
| Blood system | Complete blood count (white blood cells, platelets, hemoglobin) |
Step 4: Risk factor assessment
Comprehensively assess the various risk factors of the insured and classify them by weight:
| Risk dimension | Assessment content | Impact weight |
|---|---|---|
| Past medical history | Chronic diseases, major diseases, mental illnesses | High |
| Abnormal physical examination findings | Degree to which various examination indicators deviate from the normal range | High |
| Age risk | Baseline risk corresponding to the underwriting age group | Medium |
| Occupational risk | Risk level corresponding to occupational category (occupational classes 1-6) | Medium |
| Family genetics | History of major diseases among immediate family members | Medium |
| Body type (BMI) | Impact of overweight/obesity on health risk | Low |
| Smoking/drinking | Smoking amount and years, drinking frequency | Low |
Step 5: Disease underwriting conclusion matrix matching
Based on the disease underwriting conclusion matrix, match the identified abnormal indicators and diseases against underwriting rules. The following matrix is based on common industry practice; the latest underwriting manual of the underwriting company shall prevail.
| Disease/Abnormality | Critical Illness Insurance | Medical Insurance | Life Insurance | Key Judgment Basis |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Thyroid Nodule TI-RADS Grade 1-2 | Standard | Standard | Standard | Grade 3-4 exclusion or extra premium |
| Thyroid Nodule TI-RADS Grade 3 | Exclusion | Exclusion | Standard | Puncture result required |
| Breast Nodule BI-RADS Grade 1-2 | Standard | Standard | Standard | Grade 3 exclusion |
| Hypertension Grade 1 (<160/100) | Extra premium 10-25% | Standard/extra premium | Standard | Controlled and stable for over 6 months |
| Hypertension Grade 2 (≥160/100) | Extra premium 25-50% or postponement | Extra premium or exclusion | Extra premium 10-25% | Record of medication-controlled blood pressure required |
| Hypertension Grade 3 (≥180/110) | Declined | Declined | Declined | Risk too high |
| Type 1 Diabetes | Declined | Declined | Declined | Extremely high risk of complications |
| Type 2 Diabetes (well controlled) | Extra premium 50-100% | Declined | Extra premium 25-50% | HbA1c<7% required |
| Fatty Liver (mild) | Standard | Standard | Standard | Normal liver function |
| Fatty Liver (moderate to severe) | Extra premium or postponement | Extra premium | Standard | Liver function + blood lipids required |
| Hepatitis B Carrier (Xiaosanyang) | Standard/extra premium | Exclusion of liver disease | Standard | Normal liver function + HBV-DNA |
| Hepatitis B (Dasanyang/active phase) | Declined or postponed | Declined | Postponed | Reassessment required after treatment and conversion to negative |
| Lung Nodule <5mm | Postponed for observation | Exclusion | Standard | 3-6 month follow-up required |
| Lung Nodule 5-8mm | Postponed for observation | Exclusion | Postponed for observation | Follow-up + specialist evaluation required |
| Lung Nodule >8mm | Declined | Declined | Declined | High suspicion of malignancy |
| Uterine Fibroid <5cm | Standard | Standard | Standard | Asymptomatic |
| Uterine Fibroid >5cm | Postponed | Exclusion | Extra premium | Surgical evaluation required |
| Depression (recovered for >2 years) | Rated or standard | Standard | Standard | Proof of recovery required |
| Depression (under treatment) | Postpone | Postpone | Postpone | Reassess after condition stabilizes |
| BMI >28 and <32 | Rated +10-25% | Rated | Rated | Rule out metabolic syndrome |
| BMI ≥32 | Postpone | Postpone | Postpone | Recommend applying after weight loss |
Comprehensive risk level determination
| Overall risk level | Determination criteria | Underwriting recommendation |
|---|---|---|
| Standard | No abnormalities or abnormalities within standard range | Standard acceptance, no additional conditions |
| Substandard-mild | 1-2 mild abnormalities | Rated +10-25% or minor exclusion |
| Substandard-moderate | Multiple mild or 1-2 moderate abnormalities | Rated +25-50% or partial exclusion |
| Substandard-severe | Multiple moderate abnormalities or 1 severe abnormality | Rated +50-100% or major exclusion |
| Postponed | Risk temporarily uncertain, requires observation | Reassess after postponement of 6-12 months |
| Declined | Risk exceeds underwriting scope | Decline, explain reasons |
Step 6: Multi-disease cross reasoning
When the insured has multiple abnormalities, cross reasoning must be performed rather than simply adding individual conclusions:
- Single abnormality: Underwrite according to the underwriting treatment corresponding to that abnormality
- Multiple abnormalities superimposed ≠ simple addition: When multiple mild abnormalities coexist, the comprehensive risk may far exceed the simple sum of individual risks and requires systematic assessment. For example, when hypertension + hyperglycemia + overweight coexist, the overall risk of metabolic syndrome is far greater than the sum of the three individual risks
- Systemic abnormalities: Suggest the possible existence of an undiagnosed underlying disease (such as multiple abnormal metabolic indicators suggesting metabolic syndrome); recommend postponing underwriting and requiring comprehensive specialist evaluation
- Combination of exclusions: When multiple abnormalities involve different systems, exclusion clauses must be listed separately and applied in combination
- Principle of taking the stricter rating: When multiple abnormalities lead to different rating percentages, take the highest rating percentage as the basis and increase it as appropriate according to the superimposed effect
Step 7: Comprehensive underwriting conclusion output
Integrating all abnormal indicators and risk factors, provide an overall underwriting handling recommendation; the conclusion must include specific conditions:
| Underwriting conclusion | Definition | Output content requirements |
|---|---|---|
| Standard acceptance | No abnormalities or abnormalities within acceptable range | Normal acceptance, no additional conditions |
| Rated acceptance | Risk exists but is insurable | Recommended rating percentage(such as +50%), explain the basis for the rating |
| Exclusion acceptance | Insurable after exclusion of specific diseases | Specific description of exclusions(e.g., "thyroid malignancy and its metastasis and recurrence excluded"), specifying the scope of exclusion |
| Postponed underwriting | Additional materials required or waiting for condition to stabilize | List of specific materials to be supplemented and recommended postponement duration |
| Declined | Risk exceeds underwriting scope | Explanation of declination reason, citing specific rules or medical evidence |
Output format
Output data follows the insurance Skill general data exchange Schema, field naming is unified as snake_case, monetary amounts are in cents, and date format is ISO 8601.
The structured report includes:
- Medical abnormality summary — list of all abnormal indicators/diagnoses and degree of abnormality
- Document parsing results — key structured extraction points for various materials (OCR materials are marked with extraction source)
- Risk factor assessment — risk level and weight analysis for each dimension
- Item-by-item underwriting analysis — risk meaning and underwriting impact of each abnormality, citing the disease underwriting conclusion matrix
- Multi-disease cross analysis — interactive impact assessment of multiple abnormalities (if any)
- Comprehensive underwriting conclusion — overall underwriting conclusion, including specific rate increase percentage or exclusion description
- Supplementary materials list — specialty reports or examination items that need to be supplemented
- Underwriting basis citation — specific rules or medical evidence corresponding to each conclusion
- Points of attention — medical points that need special explanation to underwriters
System dependencies
| Dependent system | Function | Required |
|---|---|---|
| medical-knowledge-base | Medical knowledge base, providing queries for disease diagnosis and treatment guidelines and medical service charging standards | No |
| ocr-service | OCR document intelligent recognition service, providing document text extraction and structured data extraction | No |
| underwriting-system | Underwriting system, providing underwriting rule query service | No |
MCP tool invocation
At appropriate steps in the workflow, AI can invoke the following MCP tools to obtain data or perform operations:
| Work step | MCP tool | Tool description | Input parameters | Output purpose |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Step 2: Document parsing and information extraction | ocr-service.extract_text |
Perform OCR text extraction on images | image_path |
Parse uploaded image materials to obtain text content |
| Step 2: Document parsing and information extraction | ocr-service.extract_structured_data |
Extract structured fields by document type | image_path, doc_type |
Extract structured data such as physical examination reports, medical records, and pathology reports |
| Step 5: Disease underwriting conclusion matrix matching | medical-kb.get_medical_guideline |
Obtain disease diagnosis and treatment guidelines | condition |
Evaluate the medical significance of abnormal indicators and clinical management standards |
| Step 5: Disease underwriting conclusion matrix matching | medical-kb.query_medical_fee_standard |
Query medical service item charging standards | service_item, city |
Evaluate the reasonableness of physical examination item costs |
| Step 5: Disease underwriting conclusion matrix matching | underwriting-system.query_underwriting_rules |
Query underwriting rules | condition, product_type |
Match risk factors with underwriting handling rules |
Fallback strategy: When the MCP tool is unavailable, the AI should prompt the user to manually provide the corresponding information. If it involvesunderwriting-systemand other underwriting rule query tools, this data is a required basis for disease underwriting conclusion matrix matching (Step 5); if the user cannot provide it, pause the process and clearly inform the user: "The underwriting system is unavailable and cannot continue disease underwriting rule matching. Please manually provide [specific underwriting rule] and retry." If it involvesmedical-knowledge-baseorocr-service, if the user cannot provide it, mark that dimension as "To be supplemented" and do not assume or estimate. Downstream steps such as item-by-item underwriting analysis and comprehensive underwriting conclusion should continue using conservative default values, or clearly mark in the final underwriting report that "[Step X] data is missing, and the conclusion may be incomplete."
Related Skills
- Health Disclosure Verification(
insurance-underwriting-health-verification): Specialized item-by-item verification of health disclosures and cross-contradiction detection; when an inconsistency between the health disclosure and the medical examination report is found, transfer to this skill - Recording Quality Inspection(
insurance-underwriting-recording-inspection): Conduct compliance quality inspection on sales process recordings and verify disclosure completeness - Underwriting Conclusion Interpretation(
insurance-underwriting-conclusion-interpretation): Explain the underwriting conclusion and follow-up operation guidance to the customer - Follow-up(
insurance-underwriting-follow-up-outreach): Follow-up on supplementary materials and customer communication after postponement/declination
Compliance Constraints
- Scope of Non-Applicability: This skill does not apply to health disclosure verification or claim expense review. When the user's need falls under the following scenarios, it should be transferred to other skills or handled manually: health disclosure verification (→health-verification), claim expense review
- Underwriting conclusions are advisory in nature: This skill outputs underwriting recommendations; the final underwriting decision is approved by a licensed underwriting specialist
- Promises of coverage are prohibited: Do not use promissory expressions such as "definitely can be underwritten" or "guaranteed approval"
- Discriminatory judgments are prohibited: Underwriting decisions must not be based on factors protected by laws and regulations, such as race or religion
- Data Traceability: Each underwriting conclusion must indicate its basis (underwriting rule/medical basis); a conclusion without an indicated basis is deemed non-compliant
- Privacy Protection: Sensitive information such as the insured's health information and ID number must be desensitized
- Determination of medical examination abnormalities must refer to the latest version of the underwriting rules manual: The underwriting impact determination of abnormal medical examination indicators must be based on the latest version of the underwriting rules manual, and judgments must not be made based on experience or outdated standards
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 Records)
- Timeliness of medical examination reports: Medical examination reports older than 6 months usually require re-examination; before underwriting analysis, confirm whether the report is within its validity period
- Handling of critical values: When an indicator is at a critical value (such as fasting blood glucose 6.0-6.9), underwriting standards vary greatly among different companies, and it must be marked "subject to the company's latest rules"
- Multiple abnormalities combined ≠ simple addition: When multiple mild abnormalities exist simultaneously, the comprehensive risk may far exceed the simple sum of individual risks and requires systematic assessment
- Latest underwriting rules take precedence: Underwriting standards change with medical developments and company policy adjustments, so the latest version of the underwriting rules manual shall prevail; the inline rules table is based on common industry practice and is for reference only
- Do not fabricate medical conclusions: When information is insufficient, clearly mark "materials need to be supplemented"; do not guess, infer, or fabricate a diagnosis
- Dare to make a judgment: "May be insurable or may not be insurable" is useless; a directional opinion must be given (such as "recommend acceptance with a 25% extra premium") and the basis explained
- The rules table is a reference, not law: The inline disease underwriting conclusion matrix is based on common industry practice; the specific underwriting manual of the accepting company in its latest version shall prevail
- Verification of OCR extraction results: Key values extracted by OCR (blood pressure values, blood glucose values, nodule sizes, etc.) need secondary confirmation to avoid recognition errors affecting underwriting judgment
- Dynamically observe risk: During the postponement observation period, if the client provides new favorable materials (such as nodule shrinkage or indicators returning to normal), reassessment should be performed
Test cases
Use case 1: Single mild abnormality
- Input: 40-year-old male, critical illness insurance 1 million, physical examination report: thyroid ultrasound shows a 4 mm nodule in the left lobe, TI-RADS category 2
- Expected output: Recommend standard-body acceptance or an additional thyroid disease exclusion clause; no supplementary examination needed
- Verification points: For a low-risk nodule, correctly give a standard-body or exclusion recommendation, citing the disease underwriting conclusion matrix
Use case 2: Cross-reasoning for multiple abnormalities
- Input: 50-year-old male, whole life insurance 2 million, physical examination: blood pressure 148/92, fasting blood glucose 7.2, ALT 65, BMI 30
- Expected output: Comprehensive assessment recommends acceptance with extra premium (extra premium ratio 25-50%); medical records related to hypertension and blood glucose need to be supplemented; ALT needs retesting; mark metabolic syndrome risk; exclusion clauses (if applicable) need specific description; health disclosure needs to be checked for whether hypertension and abnormal blood glucose were truthfully disclosed
- Verification points: With multiple abnormalities, correctly perform cross-reasoning rather than simple addition; the extra premium ratio and exclusion clause description are specific and clear
Use case 3: Severe abnormality
- Input: 55-year-old female, medical insurance, physical examination: CA125 85 U/mL (normal value <35), abdominal ultrasound shows ovarian cyst
- Expected output: Recommend postponing underwriting; gynecological specialty examination and diagnostic report need to be supplemented to rule out malignant tumor
- Verification points: For significantly abnormal tumor markers, correctly recommend postponement and require specialty examination
Use case 4: OCR material parsing
- Input: 45-year-old female, critical illness insurance 500,000, uploaded physical examination report image + pathology report image
- Expected output: After OCR extracts structured data, perform underwriting analysis; mark the source of key values as OCR extraction
- Verification points: The OCR tool is correctly invoked, the extraction results are complete, and key values are verified
End conditions
- Successful output — Completed medical material underwriting analysis and output structured underwriting recommendations
- Insufficient information — The medical material content is incomplete; the specific indicators or materials that need to be supplemented have been communicated
- Out of scope — Involves indicators that require laboratory re-examination to determine, and it has been stated that additional tests are needed.
- User satisfied — The user explicitly indicated that the desired results have been obtained.
