Automating Benefits Census Generation with AI

Automate your entire benefits census workflow—from messy intake and validation to carrier-ready quote templates—without manual reformatting.
001
Ingest any census format without manual cleanup

The agent parses employee census spreadsheets in any layout—HR exports, payroll downloads, carrier files, or converted PDFs—and automatically maps columns to a canonical data model, eliminating hours of reformatting.

002
Validate and normalize data in real time

AI automation flags missing DOBs, malformed ZIPs, duplicate records, and incomplete dependent information as data flows in, surfacing actionable errors so brokers can resolve issues before they stall quoting.

003
Export carrier-specific quote templates instantly

The system transforms validated census data into each carrier's exact template schema—handling differences in column names, tier representations, age vs. DOB requirements, and tobacco codes—so files are quote-ready on first submission.

How Cassidy automates this using AI

Step 1: Trigger on census file upload

The Workflow activates when a broker uploads a census spreadsheet—whether it arrives via email, shared drive, or direct upload—regardless of format or layout.

Step 2: Parse and map to canonical schema

Cassidy's AI detects column headers across tabs and variations (e.g., "Birthdate," "DOB," "Date of Birth"), then normalizes employee and dependent records into a standardized data model with fields for name, DOB, gender, address, hire date, class, salary, tobacco status, and dependent relationships.

Step 3: Deduplicate and link records

Cassidy matches individuals across multiple files using name, DOB, and address, merging duplicates and linking dependents to the correct employees to create a single source of truth.

Step 4: Validate against eligibility and carrier rules

The Workflow applies business rules—waiting periods, FT/PT thresholds, class definitions, and line-of-coverage requirements—flagging missing salaries for LTD, incomplete dependent DOBs, or participation issues that would block quoting.

Step 5: Enrich and compute rating fields

Cassidy calculates rating ages based on effective date, derives tier assignments (EE/ES/EC/EF), and applies state-specific tobacco and sitused rules to prepare data for accurate quoting.

Step 6: Generate carrier-specific templates

The Workflow transforms the validated census into each carrier or GA portal's exact format—mapping fields, translating codes, and structuring employee vs. dependent rows as required—producing quote-ready files for medical, dental, vision, life, and ancillary lines.

Step 7: Deliver submission packet with Human-in-the-Loop review

Cassidy packages the carrier templates with validation summaries, exception reports, and participation counts, then routes to the broker for final review before submission—ensuring accuracy without sacrificing speed.
