About This Automation

Document and evidence collection is the manual process of requesting, tracking, and organizing documents from claimants and third parties for each claim. Manual handling creates delays, lost requests, and repeated follow-ups that slow claim resolution.

Automation identifies required documents, sends requests automatically, tracks arrivals, and organizes files without adjuster intervention. Claims move through evidence collection in days instead of weeks.

Key features:
Automatically determine which documents are needed based on claim type and policy details
Send customized document requests to claimants, providers, and third parties in parallel
Track all document requests and receipt status in a centralized log
Monitor incoming documents and flag missing items for follow-up
Organize received documents into standardized folders with consistent naming
Generate evidence summaries and update claim records when collection is complete

How The Automation Works

The full workflow, from trigger to completion.

1. Claim Approved for Investigationtrigger

Workflow triggers when claim status changes to 'Approved for Investigation'. Claim details and claimant contact information are passed to the automation.

2. Determine Required Documents

Reviews claim type, policy details, and internal guidelines to generate a list of required documents and the parties who must provide them.

3. Send Document Requests via Email

Automation sends templated document request emails to claimant, medical providers, and third parties. Each email is personalized with claim details and a unique tracking link.

4. Monitor Email Inbox for Documents

Automation monitors the claims inbox for incoming documents and attachments. Received documents are automatically logged with timestamp and sender.

5. Organize Documents

Received documents are automatically downloaded, renamed according to internal standards, and organized into the claim folder.

6. All Documents Received?

Automation checks if all required documents have been received. If no, a follow-up request is sent automatically.

7. Send Follow-up Requests

For missing documents, automation sends a follow-up email to the responsible party with a deadline. This step repeats until all documents arrive or the deadline passes.

8. Create Evidence Summary and Notify

Once all documents are received, automation creates an evidence summary document, updates the claim record, and sends a notification to the adjuster that evidence collection is complete.
