How to improve insurance claims processes

August 22, 2021 by Get Insurance Today

We often link one of the primary reasons insurance companies have a poor reputation to the claims process. Consumers understand that premiums are necessary to keep their insurance policy going; however, what makes those premiums worth it comes to play when a claim is made. 

In this article, we will address some tips on how we believe insurance companies can improve on the claim process. 

Customers expectations

Often, companies that attempt to ease processes for their consumers can expect higher efficiency.

This also includes a higher return of customers which will impact their financial gain and overall, happier customers. It’s truly a win-win for everyone.

Below, we have listed three most important points on how to improve this “complex” process.

  1. Understand all the factors that affect the claims process today

As with many other industries, the insurance industry is going through several changes.

Understanding it can achieve the factors that affect the claim process through data mining and analysis. 

  • What does the pain points of filing claims during this period feel like?
  • Reported pain points in the industry?
  • Are some new technologies being introduced to address those pain points?
  • As an insurer, how can you lead this transformation? 

These are some in-depth questions to keep the claims process consumer-centric

  1. Include processes that clarify that the customer is the focus

Making the insurance claim process seamless across multiple channels benefit the customer and company in the long run.

Including multiple channels that go further than the telephone or emails but include even social media platforms heightens the experience of facilitating a customer experience when making this transaction. 

Dealing with an insurance claim means the customer is going through a stressful period.

The least the company can and should do is to simplify the process by making it clear through actions they are on the customer’s side. 

  1. Consider mobility for Customers.

Insurers need to make sure they build the claim process to be as efficient as possible. By making services accessible through an app, it simplifies the complexity of the process. 

When customers can check the status of a claim on an app or when adjusters can go to the field and process data on the spot.

The process becomes accelerated and even more accurate. 

Conclusion

When insurance claims are efficient, customers are happier in situations that are already depressing.

As a company, you can enjoy significant cost savings. 

They can automate a lot of manual tasks.

This will free up agents time to enable them to focus on the customer. 

Communicating through multiple platforms will let the customer know that they can reach you through any means.

Which will make the process easier to navigate by becoming less stoic.
