Health insurance brokers face unique challenges. The firms we work with deal with complex policy management, commission tracking, client service reporting, and compliance requirements. To keep up, agencies need more than spreadsheets or siloed systems; they need a flexible, integrated CRM solution built for their industry.
That’s where BenefitsBridge by ForgeXRM, powered by Microsoft Dynamics 365 and the Power Platform, comes in. Here are a few real examples of how brokers are driving measurable productivity gains with CRM.
Health Insurance Broker 1 – Automating Processes and Consolidating Data with CRM
The challenge:
A newly formed benefits brokerage struggled to manage client and policy data across shared spreadsheets and outdated software. Commission tracking required hours of manual reconciliation each month.
The solution:
ForgeXRM deployed BenefitsBridge to centralize all client and carrier relationships into one secure CRM system.
- Automated commission tracking saved 20+ hours per month.
- Renewals and policy details were updated seamlessly, reducing errors.
- Admin workload dropped significantly, freeing staff to focus on client relationships.
Instead of re-entering policy renewal details across multiple spreadsheets, brokers could now access real-time updates and automated alerts directly within Dynamics 365.
Health Insurance Broker 2 – Enhancing Client Stewardship and Retention with CRM
The challenge:
A brokerage wanted to prove its value to clients by tracking service delivery and creating transparent stewardship reports.
The solution:
ForgeXRM built workflows and client stewardship reporting inside BenefitsBridge.
- Time spent on client services was categorized and reported.
- Annual reviews aligned services with client-specific goals.
- Brokers improved retention rates by clearly showing the ROI of their partnership.
For example, with added automated reminders for scheduled check-ins, brokers could proactively reach out instead of reacting to client issues.
Health Insurance Broker 3 – Streamlining Agency Operations After Mergers with CRM
The challenge:
A larger agency acquired two smaller brokers but needed to unify systems quickly to avoid data silos and inconsistent workflows.
The solution:
Within just one week, ForgeXRM migrated all data into BenefitsBridge, providing a single source of truth for the agency.
- Commission reconciliation became 40+ hours faster in the first month.
- Producers gained confidence with accurate, real-time payment tracking.
- Operations scaled smoothly across business lines.
