Overview

Web Portal for Corporate Group health insurance

The client previously ran employee insurance operations on Pazcare, a third-party platform, while Relationship Managers and insurance brokers (IMDs) managed their side of the process largely through offline, spreadsheet-driven workflows. As the business scaled, this setup fell behind processes stayed manual and unstructured while the market moved toward digital-first insurance operations. The company decided to build its own in-house ecosystem instead, giving them control over the experience for every stakeholder: Corporate HRs, Employees, RMs, and Insurers. I owned the Corporate HR Portal and Employee Experience (Mobile & Web), and contributed to shared flows lead creation, client onboarding, payments to keep the ecosystem consistent end-to-end.

Problem

Fragmented Insurance Workflows Were Increasing HR Administrative Effort

  • No single source of truth across stakeholders

  • RMs/brokers ran core tasks manually, offline

  • Slower turnaround on routine HR requests

  • Business risked falling behind digitally-mature competitors

The challenge was to create a scalable HR workspace that simplified day-to-day operations while fitting seamlessly into a larger ecosystem connecting insurers, relationship managers, and employees.

Research

Looking beyond the numbers

Worked with 1 PM + 2 business stakeholders. Reviewed Pazcare's experience and RM/broker workflows.

  • RMs/brokers: offline, spreadsheet-first — needed low-friction digital adoption

  • HR wanted more visibility/control than a 3rd-party tool allowed

  • No shared data across HR, RM, Insurer views

  • Business needed parity with modern HRTech tools, plus in-house flexibility

Ideation

Exploring interface directions

Benchmarked Pazcare + HRTech patterns. Two directions: replicate Pazcare's single-vendor model, or rebuild IA around a 4-sided ecosystem. Chose the latter — Pazcare's structure wasn't built for multi-stakeholder visibility. This shaped navigation, permissions, and per-role information design

Designs

Refining the dashboard experience

Modules built to replace manual/3rd-party tasks:

  • Policy quotes across multiple plan types (Group Health, PA, Top-up, Wellness, Parental)

  • Employee enrollment — auto-synced with HRMS (Keka or other HRMS tools as well) to detect joiners/exits

  • Benefits & coverage

  • Endorsements with in-dashboard approve/reject actions

  • Claims tracking with status breakdown

  • CD Balance & account transactions

RM/broker flows prioritized bulk actions and tabular views designed for their offline habits, not a forced app-first mindset.

Centralized operational dashboard providing visibility into policies, employees, claims, and key actions.

Impact

Designing for clarity, confidence, and everyday financial workflows

  • Replaced Pazcare + manual RM/broker processes with one in-house ecosystem

  • Gave business full ownership and control of its insurance ops experience

  • Live and supporting multiple corporate HR teams and their employee base end-to-end


Currently live, supporting HR teams through a centralized insurance operations experience.
