For many insurers, increasing automation of their claims process is an impactful way to enhance the customer journey while also delivering more concrete benefits of reduced costs, improved efficiencies, and better outcomes. Claims automation in many cases, especially low-touch-high frequency situations, can yield tangible benefits for both the policyholder and the carrier.
