Is 2020 the Tipping Point for Virtual Claims Handling?
New work arrangements, different stresses for insureds and changing availability of medical and claims resources mean claims organizations are learning to adapt to rapidly changing scenarios.
Customers are adapting rapidly to new work and social arrangements, changing their expectations of insurers just as quickly. Responsive organizations are learning that tomorrow's solutions may not fulfill all of next week's needs.
Fast-moving organizations can win the trust of customers, but only if they have command of the data and processes to deliver effective and highly accurate solutions.
Becoming proficient at handling virtual claims takes more than technology. It means creating new workflows, monitoring new capabilities coming along from third parties, all with an emphasis on responding quickly.
Not only are customers experiencing profound lifestyle changes, but so are claims personnel. Innovative organizations are reshaping their work arrangements and tools to meet those changes.
