MIS in Microinsurance

Chapter 14 in Health Microinsurance:Implementing Universal Health Coverage in the Informal Sector, 2020, pp 353-380 from World Scientific Publishing Co. Pte. Ltd.

Abstract: When a microinsurance scheme is up and running, it generates both financial and non-financial data which help to perform analysis. Thus, data are not merely a by-product but have an intrinsic value. The way to capitalize on such data is to record and process them continuously, generate reports on demand, and assist the scheme managers in making informed decisions based on specific indicators. Such data processing requires a Management Information System (MIS). In this chapter, we understand the functioning of MIS in a microinsurance setup.
