[0026] 1. Overview In general, group insurance covers those who have a certain relationship with a specific group as the insured, and since it is possible to process a large number of policies, it has the advantage of being able to reduce administrative costs compared to normal individual insurance contracts. The present invention relates to group insurance, and in particular to a system using a network.

[0027] 2. Function First, functions of an example system according to the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. 1. The system according to the present invention may have only some of the functions described below, or may have all of the functions. The system of this example may be a system related to an insurance company. A system related to an insurance company may be a system owned by the insurance company, a system managed by the insurance company, or a system used by the insurance company through a contract for use of other cloud systems, server systems, etc. In the present application, the insurance company may be any type of insurance company as long as it can handle group insurance.

[0028] 2.1. Acquisition part The acquisition unit has a function of acquiring information. The information may be information related to an application for group insurance. For example, the acquisition unit may acquire some or all of the following information: information identifying an applicant applying for group insurance (sometimes referred to as "applicant information" in this application document), information related to a person's health (sometimes referred to as "health information" in this application document), and information related to group insurance products (sometimes referred to as "group insurance product information" in this application document). The acquisition unit may also acquire other information. Note that information including the applicant information, health information, and / or group insurance product information may be referred to as "group insurance application information."

[0029] The applicant information may be any information that can identify an applicant who applies for group insurance. For example, the applicant's name, the applicant's ID, the applicant's nickname, etc. may be included. The applicant's ID may include an ID given by the system according to the present invention, or may include an ID given by another system different from the system according to the present invention. The applicant information may include the applicant's gender and / or the applicant's age information. The applicant's age may be a specific age or an age range. The age range may be based on a certain age range. The applicant may be a person who has a predetermined relationship with the organization. For example, if the organization is a service provider, the predetermined relationship may be a relationship of being a member of the service provider. The predetermined relationship may be a relationship of receiving the provision of a specific service when the service provider provides the specific service.

[0030] The health information may include information relating to a person's current health, or may include information relating to a person's past health, or may include information relating to illnesses suffered by a person (e.g., medical history), or may include information relating to a person's medical records, or may include information relating to a person's medical treatment, or may include information relating to medications taken by a person.

[0031] The group insurance product information may be information that identifies the group insurance product. The group insurance product information may include a name that identifies the group insurance product, or an ID that identifies the group insurance product. In addition, when group insurance products differ depending on the time, the members of the group, the status of the members of the group, and the like, information that distinguishes them may be included in the group insurance product information. The insurance premium for the group insurance product may be indicated according to the age information and the gender of the applicant. In addition, the insurance premium set for one group insurance product may be set higher than the insurance premium for the average gender and / or age information when applying for the group insurance product. In such a case, even if the attributes of the gender and age information of the members of the group are average, the risk of an unexpected situation occurring to the insurance company due to the payment of the insurance amount is reduced. In addition, the group insurance may be life insurance, medical insurance, or other insurance, and the type is not limited, as long as it is insurance for the members of the group.

[0032] The acquisition unit may acquire information from a system related to the organization. The organization may be any organization, for example, an organization that provides Internet services such as a service provider. In this case, the applicant may be a person who uses the service of the service provider. In the case of a member of the service provider, since the means of payment of the expenses is already determined in association with the provider contract, there is an advantage that the means of payment of the group insurance premium is easy. Note that the organization may be different from the insurance company, and the system related to the organization and the system related to the insurance company may not have overlapping configurations. Furthermore, the acquisition unit may acquire information directly or indirectly from the system related to the organization via a network. Therefore, the network between the system related to the acquisition unit and the system related to the organization may be the general Internet, may be one using a dedicated line, or may be any other type.

[0033] FIG. 2 is an example of data acquired by the acquisition unit. The acquisition unit may acquire applicant information, health information, and group insurance product information in one data structure. In this case, when an application is made from one applicant for group insurance, the acquisition unit may acquire applicant information, health information, and group insurance product information for the applicant. In this way, the acquisition unit may acquire applicant information, health information, and group insurance product information according to the timing of the application. Furthermore, the acquisition unit may acquire the applicant information, health information, and group insurance product information in an associated data structure. Furthermore, the acquisition unit may acquire the applicant information, health information, and group insurance product information at the same timing. Furthermore, the acquisition unit may acquire these pieces of information at a timing different from the timing at which they are input on the user terminal. For example, they may be acquired after a predetermined time has elapsed since they were input on the user terminal. Furthermore, the acquisition unit may acquire these pieces of information for each predetermined number of applicants.

[0034] FIG. 3 is another example of data acquired by the acquisition unit. Here, the acquisition unit acquires applicant information, health information, and group insurance product information for multiple applicants together. Here, the applicant information, health information, and group insurance product information are each associated with an ID assigned to each applicant. Therefore, the applicant information, health information, and group insurance product information can be identified for one applicant indicated by one ID. In this case, the acquisition unit may acquire the applicant information, health information, and group insurance product information at different times. Also, the acquisition unit may acquire group insurance application information related to multiple applicants for group insurance at the same time.

[0035] 2.2.Storage section The storage unit has a function of storing information related to the present invention. The storage unit may store information acquired by the acquisition unit, information required for processing by the application processing unit, the refund information generating unit, etc. described below, information after processing, and programs for performing these processes.

[0036] 2.3. Application Processing Unit The application processing unit has a function of processing applications for group insurance.

[0037] As an example of application processing, the application processing unit may store information acquired from the acquisition unit in a data structure as shown in FIG. 4. In this case, the application processing unit may perform processing in cooperation with the storage unit. These pieces of information may be stored in association with each other. Note that while this figure shows an example of storing data as one table, the information may be stored in a relational database format as shown in FIG. 5, in which each record is associated with an ID and stored, or in other database formats.

[0038] As an example of application processing, the application processing unit may calculate the number of applicants by gender and age for one group insurance. For example, FIG. 6 shows an example of the total number of applicants by gender and age for one group insurance.

[0039] 2.4.Refund Information Generation Unit The refund information generating unit has a function of generating information related to refunds for group insurance (sometimes referred to as "refund information" in this application). The refund information generating unit may generate refund information for the target group insurance product at the end of the insurance period. Note that, among applicants who applied for a group insurance product, those who become covered by insurance through assessment may also be referred to as insured persons.

[0040] The refund information may include a numerical value indicating the amount to be refunded to the organization, may include a numerical value indicating the amount to be refunded to all insured persons, and / or may include a numerical value indicating the amount to be refunded to each insured person. When the refund information includes a numerical value indicating the amount to be refunded to the organization, there is an advantage that the information on the amount to be refunded to the organization can be organized. When the refund information includes a numerical value indicating the amount to be refunded to all insured persons, there is an advantage that the amount to be refunded to all insured persons can be organized. When the refund information includes a numerical value indicating the amount to be refunded to each insured person, there is an advantage that the amount to be refunded to each insured person can be organized. Note that the refund information may include information associating one insured person with a numerical value indicating the amount to be refunded to the insured person. Also, the refund information may include information associating multiple insured persons with respective numerical values ​​indicating the amount to be refunded to each insured person. FIG. 7 shows an example in which information indicating the amount to be refunded to each of a plurality of applicants (assuming that each applicant is an insured person who became the subject of insurance as a result of the appraisal of the applicant) who applied for one group insurance product is stored in association with each of the applicants. Here, the applicant ID may be any information that can identify the applicant (insured person). Note that since appraisals for the group insurance product may be denied for some applicants, the insured person may be a part of the applicants.

[0041] Furthermore, the refund information generation unit may have a function of directly or indirectly transmitting the refund information to a system related to the organization. When refund information including a numerical value indicating the amount to be refunded to the organization is transmitted to a system related to the organization, there is an advantage that information on the amount to be refunded to the organization can be transmitted. When refund information including a numerical value indicating the amount to be refunded to all insured persons is transmitted to a system related to the organization, there is an advantage that the amount to be refunded to all insured persons can be transmitted. When refund information including a numerical value indicating the amount to be refunded to each insured person is transmitted to a system related to the organization, there is an advantage that the amount to be refunded to each insured person can be transmitted.

[0042] In particular, when the refund information includes a numerical value indicating the amount to be refunded to each insured person, if the refund information generation unit generates the information to be refunded for each insured person using the incidence rate of insurance accidents by gender, age, or other information related to the insured person, there is an advantage in that the amount to be refunded can be organized more in accordance with the situation of each insured person.

[0043] In addition, since the refund information is numerical information indicating the amount to be refunded to the organization, all insured persons, and / or each insured person, the refund information has the advantage of being easy to process in the system related to the organization that obtains the information. For example, when the refund information includes a numerical value indicating the amount to be refunded to the organization, the numerical value can be used to process the amount of the refund between the insurance company and the organization. When the refund information includes a numerical value indicating the amount to be refunded to all insured persons, the refund information has the advantage of being able to process the numerical value even if the system related to the organization has its own processing method. When the refund information includes a numerical value indicating the amount to be refunded to each insured person, the refund information has the advantage of being able to process the numerical value for each insured person in the system related to the organization. In this case, for example, when each insured person has some points in the system related to the organization, the refund amount can be processed as points in the organization by adding a numerical value indicating the amount to be refunded to each insured person to the points that each insured person has, and therefore the administrative burden is reduced.

[0044] 3. Working Example Next, an example of a system using some or all of the above-mentioned functions will be described.

[0045] 3.1. Example 1 The system according to the first embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. 8. The system 06 according to the first embodiment may be directly or indirectly connected to an external WEB server 05 via a network. The system 06 according to this example may have a function of acquiring applicant information, health information, and / or group insurance product information from the WEB server. The system may also have a function of associating and storing the applicant information, health information, and group insurance product information acquired from the WEB server. The system may also have a function of performing application processing for the group insurance using the applicant information, health information, and group insurance product information. The system 06 may be a system related to an insurance company.

[0046] The WEB server 05 may be a system related to an organization. The organization may be a service provider that provides an e-commerce business or the like. The WEB server may be directly or indirectly connected to the user terminals 01 to 04 via a network. Here, four user terminals are described as an example, but there is no limit to the number. In the following, the user terminal 01 will be described as the subject. A person having a specific relationship with a service provider may be a member of the service provider or a member who uses a specific service provided by the service provider.

[0047] The WEB server may receive a request to access a specific site from the user terminal. It may also use information acquired from the user terminal to authenticate whether the user terminal is being used by a member. It may also transmit to the user terminal a site that is accessible only to members of the organization only if authentication that the user terminal is being used by a member of the organization is successful. It may also transmit information about one or more group insurance products to the user terminal so that it can be displayed on the user terminal. It may also acquire specific group insurance product information, health information, and other information from the user terminal.

[0048] The user terminal may be used by a person who has a certain relationship with an organization. The user terminal may be capable of inputting information indicating that the user terminal is being used by a member of a specific organization, and may transmit such information to a WEB server. Only when authentication that the user terminal is being used by a member of the organization is successful, a site that can be accessed only by the member of the organization may be displayed. Information on one or more group insurance products may be displayed. In addition, on such a site, only the specific member may be able to input specific group insurance product information, health information, and other information, and such information may be transmitted to the WEB server. In this way, by configuring the system so that only specific members can apply for group insurance, it is possible to technically support the requirement of group status for group insurance.

[0049] Next, the flow of operations using the system in this example will be described with reference to FIG.

[0050] First, a member of the organization inputs information indicating that he or she is a member of the organization into a user terminal (step 01). Such information may be an ID, password, biometric authentication information, or the like indicating that the member is a member.

[0051] The user terminal transmits information indicating that the user is a member of the organization to the WEB server (step 02). The ID, password, biometric authentication information, etc., that are indicated may be subjected to a predetermined process. At this time, the user terminal may communicate with the WEB server by associating the ID with a connection ID for connecting to the WEB server.

[0052] Next, the WEB server uses the information acquired from the user terminal to authenticate the user's membership of the organization (step 03). The authentication may be performed by a method corresponding to the information indicating the user's membership of the organization, such as password authentication or biometric authentication. The WEB server may associate the above-mentioned connection ID for connection with the member, and use the connection ID for the subsequent connection with the user terminal. The connection ID may be information indicating that the connection is ongoing, such as a session ID.

[0053] Next, the WEB server transmits information on the site provided only to members of the organization to the user terminal only if the authentication that the user terminal is used by a member of the organization is successful based on the information from the user terminal (step 04). The information on the site may include information on one or more group insurance products. The information on the one or more group insurance products may be, for example, details of the one or more group insurance products, and may be information required to select a group insurance product, such as options, enrollment conditions, premiums, and insurance amounts for the group insurance products.

[0054] Next, the user terminal displays information on the site (step 05). The user terminal may display information on the site, which may be information on one or more group insurance products. When displaying the information on the site, the user terminal may display the one or more group insurance products in a selectable manner.

[0055] Next, in the case where the member applies for a specific group insurance product, the member performs such input in the user terminal (step 06). Here, the user selects a specific group insurance product. If there is an option for the group insurance product, the option may also be selected. The user also inputs health information. The health information may be input by selecting options, or the specific name of the disease suffered from and the medicine used may be input. In addition, in the case where the group is a service provider, the insurance premium to be paid by the member may be added to the service provider's fee, or may be paid by other means such as a credit card. In addition, in this step, the member may input the information of the member himself who applies for the group insurance in the user terminal. With this step, the application for the group insurance product is completed, and it is not necessary for the member to input the application information for the group insurance product in a separate system related to the insurance company.

[0056] Next, the user terminal transmits the information input by the user to the WEB server (step 07). The information input by the user may be, for example, a selected group insurance product information, health information, and other information. Note that here, the user terminal may transmit the group insurance product information, health information, and other information to the WEB server after the member inputs all of the information, or may transmit the information to the WEB server each time it receives input of a part of this information. Note that when the user terminal receives the member's information, the user terminal may transmit the member's information to the WEB server.

[0057] The WEB server transmits information based on the information transmitted and received by the user terminal to the system of this embodiment (step 08). The WEB server may transmit the information received from the user terminal to the system of this embodiment as is, or may transmit the information received from the user terminal to the system of this embodiment after performing a predetermined process on the information received from the user terminal.

[0058] The predetermined processing may be, for example, a process of adding information held by the WEB server itself, for example, a process of adding applicant information held by the WEB server itself. Since the WEB server can identify the member by the above authentication step, the WEB server may add member information associated with the connection ID by the connection ID used in the subsequent response. This has the advantage that the above health information and connection ID are only transmitted simultaneously, and there is no need to directly communicate the health information and the member information. On the other hand, when the WEB server receives member information from the user terminal, the WEB server may transmit information held by the WEB server itself to the system of this example.

[0059] The system of this example uses the information received from the web server to process an application for a specific group insurance product (step 09). The system of this example may obtain information from the web server in a data structure in which the applicant information, health information, and group insurance product information are associated with each other, or may obtain these in separate data structures. The system of this example can process an application for a group insurance product using only the information received from the web server, and does not need to obtain application information for the group insurance product from the applicant separately to a system related to the insurance company.

[0060] In the method according to the present example, a system related to an insurance company includes: an acquisition step of acquiring group insurance application information, which is information related to an application for group insurance related to the group, directly or indirectly from a system related to the group via a network; an application processing step of performing application processing using the acquired group insurance application information; A method for performing The group insurance application information is applicant information identifying a person who has a predetermined relationship with the organization and who is an applicant for insurance for the organization; Health information relating to the applicant's health; and Group insurance product information which is information related to the group insurance product for which the applicant is applying, The application processing step includes: A processing step of storing the applicant information, the health information, and the group insurance product information in association with each other, It may be a method.

[0061] In this way, the system of this example has the advantage that the applicant for group insurance has already concluded a provider contract with the service provider and can apply for group insurance using a site that he or she normally uses. In particular, when the application for group insurance can be completed within the service provider, as in the system of this example, the applicant for group insurance does not have to access the insurance company's website again and re-enter his or her own information as the applicant for group insurance. In addition, from the viewpoint of the system of this example, this advantage is realized by a configuration in which the system of this example does not directly acquire group insurance application information from a user terminal, but rather the group insurance application information is transmitted from the user terminal to a system related to the group, and the system of this example acquires the group insurance application information from the system related to the group.

[0062] 3.2. Example 2 The system according to the second embodiment is realized by an application connected to a server, instead of a site provided by a Web server. Only the differences from the first embodiment will be described.

[0063] The WEB server may have a function to download an application (sometimes referred to as a "group insurance product app" in the present application) that enables applications for group insurance products. The WEB server may also have a function to update information and processing in the group insurance product app. The WEB server may also be connected in real time to the group insurance product app in the user terminal, and may be capable of sending and receiving information in real time in response to input of information of a member using the user terminal. The WEB server may also be connected to the group insurance product app and receive applications for group insurance products even during times when the user of the user terminal is not using the group insurance product app.

[0064] The user terminal may be capable of installing and executing a group insurance product app. The user terminal may also have a function of updating information and processing in the group insurance product app. The user terminal may also be capable of connecting to a web server in real time and transmitting and receiving information in real time in response to input of information of a member using the user terminal into the group insurance product app. The user terminal may also be capable of connecting to the web server and transmitting an application for a group insurance product even during a time period when the user of the user terminal is not using the group insurance product app.

[0065] Next, an example of a flow using the system of this embodiment will be described. It is assumed that a group insurance product application provided by a web server has been downloaded and installed on a user terminal.

[0066] First, in response to a user's instruction to start the group insurance product app, the user terminal starts the group insurance product app (step 1). At this time, the user terminal accesses the WEB server to check whether there is an update for the group insurance product app, and if it is determined in the WEB server that there is an update, the user terminal may connect to the WEB server and perform the update process.

[0067] Next, the user terminal works in conjunction with the WEB server to authenticate the member (step 2). In this case, the authentication may be performed by connecting to the WEB server, and the processing in this case may be steps 1 to 3 of the system according to the first embodiment.

[0068] Next, only if the user terminal is successfully authenticated as being used by a member of the group in the group insurance product app, the user terminal displays information on one or more group insurance products provided only to members of the group on the group insurance product app, and in response, the user inputs information to apply for a specific group insurance product (step 3). Such a display may correspond to steps 5 and 6 of the system according to the first embodiment. In this way, by configuring the system so that only specific members can apply for group insurance, it is possible to technically support the requirement that group insurance be a group.

[0069] Next, the group insurance product application on the user terminal transmits the information input by the user to the WEB server (step 4). This step corresponds to step 7 in the first embodiment.

[0070] Hereafter, in the second embodiment, steps 8 and onward in the first embodiment may be applied.

[0071] In the above, the steps for applying for a group insurance product in real time when the user terminal is connected to the WEB server have been described, but the group insurance product may be accepted even when the user terminal cannot connect to the WEB server. In this case, it is preferable that the group insurance product app displays on the user terminal a possibility that the group insurance product cannot be applied for. Furthermore, the authentication method described in the following Example 3 may be applied to authenticate the members on the user terminal. Furthermore, the group insurance product app may be configured to be able to exchange information with the WEB server when it is connected to the WEB server.

[0072] 3.3. Example 3 The system of this embodiment is an example of a system in which security is implemented in the system according to the embodiment 1 or the embodiment 2. Various security methods are applicable to the system according to the embodiment 1 or the embodiment 2, and one example of them will be described as the embodiment 3.

[0073] The user terminal may be applied with a security measure for authentication. In the first and second embodiments, information indicating that the terminal is used by a member of the organization is transmitted from the user terminal to the WEB server, but instead of such information, information obtained by processing the information indicating that the terminal is used by a member of the organization may be transmitted from the user terminal to the WEB server. For example, the user terminal may have a one-way function, and the one-way function may be applied to the information indicating that the terminal is used by a member of the organization, and the obtained value may be transmitted from the user terminal to the WEB server, and the obtained value may be compared with a value obtained by applying the one-way function to the information indicating that the terminal is used by a member of the organization in advance in the WEB server, and authentication may be performed. In this case, there is an advantage that the information is not intercepted because the password itself is not communicated.

[0074] Also, parameters used in such one-way functions may be sent from the WEB server to the user terminal, and a value to which the one-way function is applied using such parameters may be sent from the user terminal to the WEB server, and then collated as described above. In this case, even if the value to which the one-way function is applied is intercepted midway, if the next parameter is different, the value to which the next one-way function is applied will be different, making spoofing more difficult.

[0075] In the above, an example of information exchange between the user terminal and the WEB server has been described, but authentication may be performed by inputting information into the group insurance product app in the user terminal. In this case, there is an advantage that real-time information exchange with the WEB server is not required.

[0076] 3.4. Example 4 The system according to the fourth embodiment is an example in which the WEB server is distributed. The system will be described with reference to Fig. 10. This embodiment will be described mainly in comparison with the system according to the first embodiment, but the WEB server may be distributed in the second and third embodiments as well.

[0077] In this figure, among the user terminals 01 to 04, the user terminals 01 and 02 may be directly or indirectly connected to the WEB server 05, and the user terminals 03 and 04 may be directly or indirectly connected to the WEB server 06. This configuration has the advantage that the burden on the WEB servers 05 and 06 is not excessively heavy, and simultaneous applications by members can be appropriately handled. In particular, in the case of a group insurance product that can be applied for by a member of an organization such as a service provider and is a topical insurance product that can be applied for at a flat fee, applications may be concentrated at a certain time. Even in such a case, there is an advantage that it can be appropriately handled. The functions of the WEB servers 05 and 06 may be the same as those described above, and the system of this example may obtain information from the two servers, the WEB servers 05 and 06. The WEB servers 05 and 06 may be systems related to organizations, and the system 07 of this example may be a system related to an insurance company.

[0078] FIG. 11 is another example in which the WEB servers are distributed. In this example, the WEB servers 05 and 06 are configured to transmit information to the server 07. In this case, batch processing is possible, such as transmitting information from the server 07 to the system 08 of this example when a certain number of applicants are gathered. In this case, the service provider has an advantage that the information can be organized once in the server 07, and even if the administrator / owner of the server 07 and the system 08 of this example are different, there is an advantage that the consistency of the data structure and the information communication protocol between them can be focused only on the server 07. In this way, the system of this example may be configured to obtain information from one server 07. The WEB servers 05, 06, and server 07 may be systems related to an organization, and the system 08 of this example may be a system related to an insurance company.

[0079] 3.5. Example 5 The system according to the fifth embodiment is an example of calculating refund information. The system according to the fifth embodiment is premised on having group insurance product information and applicant information for group insurance in advance. The process of acquiring such information may be the method described in the above embodiment, or may be other methods without being limited to the method described in the above embodiment. That is, the system according to the fifth embodiment may be a combination of any one of the systems according to the first to fourth embodiments and the system according to the fifth embodiment, or may be a combination of another system and the system according to the fifth embodiment, or may be a single system of the system according to the fifth embodiment.

[0080] A system according to a fifth embodiment will be described with reference to Fig. 12. The system 07 according to the present embodiment, which is related to an insurance company, may be directly or indirectly connected to a server 06 related to an organization via a network. The system related to the organization may include, for example, the server 06 and a web server 05.

[0081] The system 07 may include a refund information generating unit that generates refund information. For one group insurance product, the refund information generating unit may generate 1) refund information for the group, 2) refund information for all insured persons, and / or 3) refund information for each insured person.

[0082] Here, the refund information generated by the refund information generating unit will be described based on a specific example. In this example, it is assumed that the following situation exists for one group insurance product.

[0083] [Hypothetical example] Monthly insurance premium: 1,000 yen Total insurance premium: 6,000 (unit: million yen) · Business operating expenses: 15% of the total insurance premium = 6,000 (million yen) x 15% = 900 (million yen) Total insurance payment amount: 3,000 (unit: million yen) Group dividend rate: 80% - Dividend rate for all insured persons: 60%

[0084] For one group insurance product, at the end of the insurance period of the group insurance product, the above information may be inputted into the system of this example, stored, and used as described below. The information may be inputted into the system of this example by an administrator of the system of this example, or may be inputted into the system of this example and stored using a separate technology. Note that the term "insurance premium" refers to the amount paid by the insured (the amount obtained by the insurance company), and the term "insurance benefit" refers to the amount obtained by the insured (the amount paid by the insurance company) in the present application documents.

[0085] 1) Refund information for groups The refund information for the organization may be calculated according to the following formula: Refund information = (total insurance premiums - business operating expenses - total insurance claims paid) x dividend rate for the group Here, based on the above example, the refund information is calculated as (6000 (million yen) - 900 (million yen) - 3000 (million yen)) x 80% = 1680 (million yen). Therefore, if the refund information includes information indicating the amount to be refunded to the organization, the refund information may include the numerical value 1680 (million) (1680000000).

[0086] 2) Refund information for all insured persons The refund information for the entire insured population may be calculated according to the following formula: Refund information = (total insurance premiums - business operating expenses - total insurance claims paid) x dividend rate received by all insured persons Here, based on the above example, the refund information is calculated as (6000 (million yen) - 900 (million yen) - 3000 (million yen)) x 60% = 1260 (million yen). Therefore, if the refund information includes information indicating the amount to be refunded to all insured persons, the refund information may include the numerical value 1260 (million) (1260000000).

[0087] 3) Refund information for each insured person Refund information for each insured person may be generated using the gender and age group of each insured person. In this example, the number of people by gender and age group (in this application document, the division by gender and age group is sometimes called "block") for one group insurance product at the end of the period is as shown in Figure 13.

[0088] Additionally, for each block, the surplus amount may be calculated according to the following formula: Surplus=Insurance premium-Business operating expenses-Insurance paymentBased on the above formula, the surplus calculated for each block in FIG. 13 is as shown in FIG. 14. Note that the information related to FIG. 13 and FIG. 14 may be input and stored in the system of this example, as described above, and used as described below. This information may be input into the system of this example by the administrator of the system of this example, or may be input and stored in the system of this example using a separate technology.

[0089] Next, the ratio of the surplus amount for each block to the total surplus amount (sometimes referred to as the "dividend distribution ratio" in this application document) is calculated. In this example, the calculation is performed as shown in Figure 15. Note that from here on, it is assumed that dividends will not be paid to insured persons who belong to blocks with a negative surplus amount, so there is no need to calculate refund information. In this figure, the blocks for which refund information is calculated are shown shaded. Here, the total surplus amount excluding negative blocks is 500+400+600+300+300+100=2200 in this example. Therefore, the dividend distribution ratio for the male block in (1), for example, is: For locks, the calculation is 500 / 2200(%)=22.7%.

[0090] Next, the total amount of dividends to be paid to the insured (1,260 (million yen)) is multiplied by the "dividend distribution rate" to calculate the total amount of dividends to the insured. In this example, the calculation is as shown in Figure 16. For example, for the male block in (1), the calculation is 1,260 x 22.7% = 286 (rounded off).

[0091] Next, the total amount of dividends to insureds is divided by the number of insureds belonging to each block to calculate a value. In this example, the calculation is performed as shown in FIG. 17. For example, for the block of men in (1), the calculation is 286 (million yen) / 50,000 (persons)=5,727 (yen). Therefore, when the refund information includes information indicating the amount to be refunded to each insured person, the refund information may include information as shown in FIG. 18, in which a numerical value indicating the amount to be refunded is associated with each gender and age group. Note that in this figure, blocks for which the amount to be refunded has not been calculated are omitted, but the refund information may include information for those blocks, or may include other information.

[0092] Additionally, system 07 may transmit 1) refund information for the organization, 2) refund information for all insured persons, and / or 3) refund information for each insured person to the organization-related system, either in response to a request from the organization-related system or without a request from the organization-related system.

[0093] Server 06 may update the point information held by each applicant for the group insurance product related to the refund information by adding a numerical value indicating the amount to be refunded to each applicant in the refund information to the numerical value of points or other information that each applicant already has.

[0094] The Web server 05 may be capable of obtaining points for each applicant from the server 06 and transmitting refund information corresponding to each applicant in response to a request for refund information from the user terminals 01 to 04.

[0095] An example of a system related to an insurance company may include a refund information generating unit that generates refund information. Here, the system of this example does not include the acquisition unit, storage unit, and application processing unit described above, and the information used in the refund information generating unit may be information previously stored in the system.

[0096] The refund information may also include a numerical value indicating the amount to be refunded to the applicant, which corresponds to the gender related to the applicant information and / or the age information related to the application information.

[0097] The refund information may include information for identifying an insured person and a numerical value indicating an amount to be refunded to the insured person, in association with each other.

[0098] Furthermore, the refund information generating unit may generate different numerical values ​​indicating the amount to be refunded to the insured person depending on the gender and / or age information of the insured person.

[0099] The refund information generating unit may generate the refund information using age information of the applicant information, gender related to the applicant information, and the number of applicants to the group insurance.

[0100] In addition, the method executed by the system relating to the example insurance company is as follows: calculating a surplus for each block according to the age group of the insured and / or the gender of the insured; A step of calculating a dividend distribution ratio, which is a ratio of the surplus amount for each block to the total surplus amount calculated using the surplus amount; A step of calculating a total amount of dividends to the insured, which is a numerical value obtained by multiplying the total amount of dividends to be paid to the insured by the dividend distribution rate; A step of calculating a dividend to be distributed to each insured person, which is a numerical value obtained by dividing the total amount of dividends to insured persons for each block by the number of insured persons at the end of the period for each block; The present invention may also be a program that enables a system related to an insurance company to execute the above method.

[0101] Regarding the group insurance dividends paid to the policyholder by the insurance company, how to distribute the dividends to each insured is generally left to the policyholder's decision, and in many cases, the dividends are not even refunded to each insured. Even in cases where the dividends are refunded to each insured, a fixed rate of dividends is often refunded to all members of the group according to the insurance premiums paid by each insured, due to the complexity of the administrative procedures. When the system of this example includes the refund information generating unit as described above, it has an advantage that information for refunding to each insured can be efficiently generated. When the information generated by the refund information generating unit is transmitted to the system related to the group, which is the system related to the policyholder, it has an advantage that the policyholder can obtain information for refunding to each insured without any administrative burden. In particular, when the refund information generating unit generates insured dividend refund information for each gender and / or age information for the applicant of the group insurance using gender and / or age information, and the information is transmitted to the system related to the group, it has an advantage that the group can obtain more precise refund information according to the information of each insured. From the viewpoint of the applicants for group insurance, this has the advantage of reducing the sense of unfairness between applicants for group insurance. Also, when the refund information generating unit generates the refund information as a numerical value indicating an amount and transmits the information to the system related to the group, the system related to the group can process the information as a calculation of the numerical value held by each member, and has the advantage of being able to execute refunds related to the group insurance without the burden of administrative processing.

[0102] 4. System Configuration In the present application, a "system" may be composed of one information processing device, or may be composed of multiple information processing devices. Furthermore, the owner and / or manager of one or multiple information processing devices may be the same or different. The information processing devices described below may be of the same configuration in the system described in the present application, as well as in the server and terminal.
