Change Policy Address
The Change Policy Address Microjourney™ in Pega Customer Service™ for Insurance provides insurance policyholders the ability to easily update an address online or through a customer service representative.
This use case enables insurance companies to manage retention risk by providing information about a premium change, if relevant, to a customer who is changing an address. Additionally, it allows customers and companies to manage updates to multiple policies with one interaction.

The Change Policy Address Microjourney is available in self-service and assisted channels.
Web self-service example: Customers can update an address themselves and specify the policies and policyholders the change applies to.
Web Self-Service
Moving is stressful. Updating insurance policies should be easy. Many people have multiple policies with the same insurance carrier. Often, companies put the burden on customers to update each policy separately.
- Customer accesses self-service website.
- Customer selects whether the move is physical or only a mailing address change.
- Customer selects whether the change applies to one person or the entire household.
Assisted Service
Customers can change their address by calling, chatting, or using other assisted-service channels. A customer service representative (CSR) assists the customer by making the address change in the Pega Interaction Portal.
- The CSR asks the customer if the move is physical or a mailing address change.
- The CSR is presented with a knowledge management article that describes why the insurance premium might change when the customer moves.
- The CSR can quickly review key information about the policy, including the insured parties and the current premium amount.
Assisted service example: Customers may change their address by calling, chatting, or using other assisted-service channels. A CSR would assist the customer by making the address change in the Pega Interaction Portal.
