Committed to progressive products and services

We’re continually assessing our product offerings to ensure they’re helpful and holistic.

For example our supplemental health product enhancements include family-building benefits like a collaboration with proactive labor and delivery claim payment, infertility coverage, and BenefitBump, which supports all paths to parenthood. We’re also first on the scene to offer a unique hospital transport benefit.

Enrolling for life insurance should be seamless, that’s why Securian Financial made the evidence of insurability (EOI) process easier with on-platform EOI capabilities and eliminated knockout questions related to mental health. 

To complement both product suites, we’re proud to offer a comprehensive bereavement support system, Empathy. Empathy provides insured individuals and beneficiaries on-demand personalized guidance and care for the administrative, emotional, legal and financial challenges both when preparing for a loss and after their loved one passes away.


Committed to ethical artificial intelligence practices

Artificial intelligence (AI) is a critical component of the innovation journey. Our ethical AI practices ensure human oversight to help safeguard privacy and security.

To better serve clients, we’re using AI to:

  • Generate new hire emails to offer personalized coverage recommendations
  • Provide real-time support with the AI-driven chatbot within our Benefit Scout decision-support tool
  • Utilize AI document capture to create efficiency in underwriting response times
