About This Automation Insurer and third-party liaison work involves logging new claims, requesting documentation, and tracking payments across multiple parties. Manual tracking creates delays, inconsistent follow-up, and missed service level deadlines.
Automation captures claim details on arrival, chases outstanding documents automatically, and matches payments to open claims. This shortens documentation turnaround and keeps customers informed with less manual effort.
Key features:
Captures claim details automatically from incoming notifications Chases missing documentation on a set schedule without manual follow-up Matches insurer payments to open claims automatically Updates claim status and customer communications in real time Flags overdue claims for escalation before SLA deadlines Top friction points when done manually The issues teams report most often with this process
