Claims Experience Management and Benchmarking

A claim is an important event when an insurer can significantly impact a customer’s experience with their company. Many insurers struggle to accurately capture the customer’s experience within the claims process and evaluate how their experience compares with that of their peers. We help companies measure their claims customer experience, provide internal workflows for service recovery, and benchmark analytics to measure performance against peer claims organizations.

Real-Time Response for Action and Analysis

Claims organizations impact policyholders during the greatest time of need. The interactions of the claims staff directly influence customer sentiment and policyholder retention during challenging situations for the insured. Timely feedback of the claims experience is critical to help companies deliver exceptional service and improve performance.

Currently, companies struggle with:

  • Efficiently collecting customer feedback
  • Identifying and acting on opportunities in the claims process
  • Evaluating how their claims experience results compare to others in the industry
  • Promoting successes internally and externally

Through our ExperienceMonitor program, we help claims organizations collect and measure the claims experience of their customers.  With direct feeds from your claims system, we automate the survey process for you and collect responses real-time. We help companies identify opportunities through our alerts process and notify the right people to act on service recovery opportunities.

Trusted Methodology for the Insurance Industry

We specialize in the insurance industry and provide a common structure so that each measure is consistent for every company.  Through the use of such industry leading measures as Net Promoter ScoreSM (NPS®)*, Customer Satisfaction Score (CSAT), and Customer Effort Score (CES), we provide a recognized structure to accurately compare results across every company. This independent analysis provides credibility in the measurement and reporting of claims experience performance.
