Online Insurance Dealer Supports Brokers | Advisor.ca News
In an age where technology has revolutionized the financial services industry, there have been many positive developments, making life easier for the professionals in the field. But there has also been a downside, according to David Slabodkin, president of Canada Protection Plan (CPP). He says the direct sales model presented by the Internet poses a threat to the broker community and could eliminate up to one-third of brokers within the next five to seven years. "Our company is built on this broker network, which I believe needs to be protected and must evolve to meet the challenges of technology and the profitability requirements of the insurance carriers," he says. "Brokers provide a vital service to the consumer and the underwriting insurance companies. There needs to be a balance between technology, profitability and personal service." To that end, CPP has rolled out an online insurance brokerage which manages to keep the broker in the picture. (...more)

Canada Protection Plan Unveils Purchase-Online Services CPP is now offering Canadians the opportunity to purchase life, health, and other insurance plans on the Internet.
Canada Protection Plan unveiled a new Web site today that allows Canadians to purchase insurance online. CPP's state-of-the-art Web site is leading the North American insurance industry into the 21st century. Online insurance shoppers will discover that CPP's new site integrates user-friendly information, numerous insurance plans, and instant quote software into a beautiful and robust site. Helpful audio and video clips are used liberally throughout the site to introduce consumers and insurance brokers to the many features and insurance plans that CPP now offers online. In addition to non-medical life insurance, the new CPP site also offers a full range of insurance products including health and dental, travel, hospital cash, visitor to Canada, and the highly demanded critical illness insurance policies. Canada Protection Plan's dynamic new site is a wonderful compliment to CPP's traditional sales through its Toronto office and by insurance agents across Canada.
Best Doctors now Free Benefit for many CPP Policies All critical illness and most permanent life insurance policies sold through Canada Protection Plan, now include Best Doctors as a free benefit.
Canada Protection Plan is pleased to announce that in addition to their critical illness policies, all of their regular permanent life plans now come with the Best Doctors benefit at no extra charge. Clients now automatically gain access to the Best Doctors network for consultations and referrals. In addition, life insurance clients with a terminal illness may qualify to receive a portion of their death benefits while they are still living with a terminal illness.
The Origin of Best Doctors
Best Doctors vision was shaped by its founders, professors of medicine at Harvard Medical School, who spent many years caring for patients committed to surviving life-threatening illnesses. Together, they realized that patients with difficult illnesses often lacked guidance and support to successfully access the best medical care.
The Best Doctors Benefit
When people with the Best Doctors benefit are diagnosed with a serious medical condition, Best Doctors provides a free list of the best medical specialists in their area, country, and throughout the world. These medical specialists work with local medical staff to better diagnose and treat the patient's medical condition. The services of the Best Doctors professionals are not necessarily free, depending upon Provincial and National health insurance plans. But adequate critical illness and life insurance plans provide much needed cash to pay for the best treatment that money can buy. Best Doctors has a worldwide database of over 50,000 doctors recognized by their peers as the top specialists in their fields of expertise.
