The Challenge

A leading insurance provider was struggling with inefficient claims processing workflows that were causing significant delays and customer dissatisfaction. Their existing system relied heavily on manual review, resulting in:

  • Long processing times — Claims took an average of 9-12 days to process, causing customer frustration
  • High error rates — Manual processing led to inconsistent decisions and a 12% error rate
  • Escalating operational costs — The company was spending over $14M annually on claims processing operations
  • Limited scalability — During peak periods, backlogs would form, further delaying processing

The company needed a solution that could dramatically improve processing speed and accuracy while reducing costs and improving the customer experience.
