What is the difference between ....insurance clerk ....insurance processor ?

Agent An insurance agent is someone who sells insurance policies to people. Being an insurance agent may be a good job for you if you like to meet and talk with people. You will need at least a high school diploma to be an agent, and you may need to have a college degree to have certain agent jobs.

Underwriter An underwriter is a person who decides which people and things an insurance company should insure and which ones they should not. For instance, if a car is no longer running and dented, an underwriter will probably decided not to insure it. An underwriter also determines how much the company should charge for insurance. You will need at least a high school diploma to be an underwriter, and you may need to have a college degree to have certain underwriting jobs.

Customer Service Representative Customer service representatives talk with people to get details after their property is damaged. They often answer questions from people who need to know what their insurance does and does not pay for. You will need at least a high school diploma to be a claims representative, and you may need to have a college degree to have certain adjuster jobs.

Claims Representative Like a customer service representative, claims representatives work with people after their property has been damaged. They help people get the money they need to repair or replace their property. You will need at least a high school diploma to be a claims representative, and you may need a college degree.

Adjuster An adjuster is a person who helps people after their property has been damaged.

One of the most important things adjusters do is to determine how much the damage will cost to repair.

Actuary An actuary is a person who helps insurance companies know how much money to charge for insurance. To be an actuary, you will need a college degree in mathematics or statistics. After you have a college degree, you must pass a series of tests to become an actuary.

Regulator Each state has an agency that makes sure that insurance companies obey the law. This is called regulation. In Texas, the Texas Department of Insurance (TDI) regulates the insurance industry. TDI has more than 1,000 employees in Austin and in field offices all across the state. To work at TDI, you need a high school diploma, but many jobs require a college degree.

In my opinion and understanding the insurance processor is the underwriter who assess and make the initial evaluation of the risk and subsequently determining the premium rate , policy excess and conditions.

Insurance clerk  is a subordinate who assist the completion and follow up of the said work , however the insurance clerk and insurance processor are complementary .

My best wishes

Apologized for the answer, I do not know, leave the answer for the professionals.

agree with mr. vinod on his answer

Insurance clerks obtain information from policyholders to verify the accuracy  and completeness of information on claims forms,  review related insurance documents provided by the patient,  as well as review medical records to verify all relevant information while an insurance processor are clerks who process claims for insurance companies.  Some of the duties that they perform include processing new insurance policies,  modifying existing ones and obtaining information from policyholders to verify the accuracy of their accounts.  

Agree with answer given by Mr. Vinod Jetey. Thanks
