Insurance software can be tailored to meet the needs of any business from small home offices, Third Party Administrators (TPA) to large administrators and insurance management companies. The three listed below are the most widely used and can be found in stores or on the Internet.

Individual health and life insurance software can support a range of life insurance and health insurance products. It should offer fully, integrated support for underwriting, new business processing, policy services, insurance billing, agent advances and agent commissions, insurance claims processing, management and statutory reporting, reserves, accounting, and more.

Group Health Administration software is used by group insurers, third party administrators (TPA), multi-employer trusts, and self-administered plans. This software provides support for enrollment, billing, accounting and collections, provider networks, managed care, referrals/pre-certification, insurance claims processing (including EDI), HIPAA, customer service, accounting, management reporting, and more.

Workers' Compensation insurance software supports carriers, third party administrators (TPA), and self-insurance trusts. Integrated insurance software sould include quotes, policy issuance, insurance billing, accounts receivable, agent commissions, insurance claims processing, fee schedules and PPO network pricing, audits, extensive reporting, and more.

All in all, insurance software provides practically everything you need to manage and account for the details in an insurance business. However, they do not handle the necessary, direct face-to-face or telephone communication required for maintaining a customer base. The software, in other words, does no do all the work for you. It does, however, cut your workload down considerably, so that you can focus your efforts elsewhere. This is a boon for insurance agents worldwide.
