Claims: Core to the disruption
Currently, many insurance companies are focusing on refining individual aspects of their products and services, yet few are revitalizing their claims handling processes. To drive significant transformation and maintain a competitive edge, insurance companies must leverage state-of-the-art technologies and commit to a proactive, user-centric approach.
The benefits of these changes, from making customers happier to being more efficient and spending less on processing claims, will be significant. Successful insurance companies – those leading the way in changes – will figure out what needs to change to rethink how claims are handled while staying ready to adjust to a changing world.
Not making any changes isn’t an option; that’s a sure way to fall behind. Executives need to see if their organization has the vision and skills needed to succeed in this journey.
Creating a frictionless user experience coupled with a seamless, cost-effective operation calls for a union between technology, talent, and process capabilities. Claims operations, that have been traditionally treated as outputs of a “reactive back office” will have to become a powerful differentiator; innovative in nature, uncompromising on customer service, multifaceted in the capability of its talent, and capable of driving strong results. The key enablers to this future are a combination of process transformation, adoption of new technologies, a connected partner ecosystem, and a talent model that values technical claims handling and data science skills. Adoption of new technologies may not only reduce the pressure of an aging workforce with fewer new entrants as no-touch processing increases, but also the need for greater technical fluency in the claims professional population to be able to take advantage of the increased volume and velocity of available information.

The benefits of these changes, from making customers happier to being more efficient and spending less on processing claims, will be significant. In the next few years, the insurance industry will go through big changes. But the truth is, we can’t predict the future and how fast the way claims work will change. Successful insurance companies – those leading the way in these changes – will figure out what needs to change to rethink how claims are handled while staying ready to adjust to a changing world.
Not making any changes isn’t an option; that’s a sure way to fall behind. Executives need to see if their organization has the vision and skills needed to succeed in this journey. Even though there are many things we don’t know about the future, companies that take the right steps now will be ready to respond and adjust along the way.

Striking the right balance: Merging digital tools with human expertise.
Claims organizations are evolving by harnessing the combined strengths of artificial intelligence and human insight, effectively bridging the gaps inherent in each.
We know that people will remain vital in the claims process. With the help of digital tools, automation and AI, they will work more efficiently and achieve better results.
For instance, when a claim is first reported, advanced analytics are being used by most insurance companies. This helps quickly sort and direct each claim to the right person and the best way to resolve it. About 60% of future claims - those that are routine and have expected patterns - could be handled by digital tools or a "cognitive agent”. For more complicated claims and situations requiring careful judgment - the remaining 40% - humans will still handle them. Humans can offer real understanding and use new tools to do their job better. Similarly, there are tools called "cognitive whisper agents" that give helpful information to support agents. These tools can guide people dealing with complex claims in their customer interactions. With this help, insurance adjusters can use analytics-powered dashboards to quickly figure out how a claim might turn out and tell customers what to do next. For example, if analytics notice that someone with a worker's compensation claim hasn't finished needed treatments, the adjuster gets a heads up to check with them and let the customer know. These cognitive agents, both for customers and the company, can make the process faster, get rid of issues between customers and insurers, and possibly help companies spend less money while still handling claims accurately.

Reimagining proactivity: Anticipate and address customer needs seamlessly.
Claims departments will provide updates and next steps through preferred channels or a unified hub that integrates multiple platforms..
With the use of video and data-sharing features, claims teams are giving customers detailed and instant information, handling all questions about the status of claims online and getting rid of phone calls. Here are some more examples:
- An auto customer gets regular automated updates on the status of their repair through their chosen communication method.
- A property customer visits their insurance company's online claims hub to view photos and videos of their roof repair. They directly communicate with emergency services about any areas needing further attention.
- An automated "claims concierge" guides each customer and claimant through the claim process, minimizing the tasks required by the adjuster.
Insurers that communicate proactively with customers, for instance, by using analytics and algorithms to predict their needs and suggest products, can reduce unnecessary calls to claims centers. This not only enhances the customer experience but also allows call-center agents to focus on more valuable tasks, like handling complex claims.
In a parallel scenario, consider the way virtual assistants, like Amazon's Alexa or Apple's Siri, proactively provide information or assistance based on user habits and preferences. These smart devices learn from user interactions, offering relevant suggestions or performing tasks without explicit commands. Similarly, insurers employing proactive analytics anticipate customer needs, suggesting suitable products or streamlining claim processes, thereby enhancing overall efficiency and customer satisfaction.
Ultimately, the claims process is transformed into an interactive experience.
Rethinking the role of insurers: Set yourself apart by rethinking how to help customers during claims.
Start by using 20 percent of your resources to prevent claims instead of just handling them the usual way.
With the help of telematics along with devices like health trackers, wearables, and mobile phones, customers and potential claimants can get warnings about risks before anything unexpected happens. For instance, sensors installed in buildings can notify owners and insurers when indoor temperatures drop to freezing levels, prompting integrated smart thermostats to increase the heat automatically. In hurricane-prone areas, smart homes can deploy hurricane shutters automatically based on weather alerts from the insurance carrier. Likewise, in manual labor settings, sensors in workers' clothing and telematics devices in machines can detect extended work periods, prompting employees to take breaks for sustained alertness. If a worker exits a designated safe zone, movement sensors will send an alert, automatically stopping the machine to prevent injuries. Guided by insurers, organizations might install new flooring that changes color when wet, highlighting potential hazards leading to injuries. Reducing claims will fundamentally shift the relationship between insurers and customers - from only interacting after accidents to becoming partners in preventing losses.
