Related Committees and Study Groups

Highlight: The EDI Standards Committee

This committee provides a forum for LIMRA member companies in the Workplace Benefits arena to get together and discuss and develop data exchange standards related to the employee benefits enrollment process.

Simplifying Data Exchange

The enrollment and administration of workplace benefits continues to evolve, however, the way data is exchanged has remained stagnant, resulting in laborious and time-consuming engagement among parties, widely varying data formats, and erroneous data being exchanged.

LIMRA Datat Exchange Standards (LDEx) will change that! Having a common standard will reduce customer onboarding timelines, and reduce ongoing costs to insurance carriers, benefits administration platforms, brokers, and employers.
