Before we begin to understand how the GeniusPREINSPECT Solution can enable pre-inspection automation for you, let us understand the phases of claim settlement. Your insurance passes through 5 phases before your claim can be settled. These are:
- You approach your broker
A broker/agent is an intermediary between you and your carrier. Your broker will assess your situation and then approach the carrier with a plan of action.
- Investigation Commences
Damages/losses are quantified in this stage. An adjuster performs this task, along with determining liable parties. The adjuster will investigate the presence of witnesses, and if any, note down their contact details.
- Policy Review
The adjuster carefully reviews your policy to understand the type of coverage your insurance provides.
- Damage Evaluation
Appraisers, engineers and other experts of the field step in to perform an overall analysis of the damage caused. This stage is crucial to arrive at an amount for reimbursements.
- Payment
The amount decided after Damage Evaluation, plus any unforeseen expenses in lieu of repairs will be settled between you and your carrier.
The Role of GeniusPREINSPECT Solution
GeniusPREINSPECT achieves carrier pre-inspection automation and helps improve speed, efficiency and consistency of carrier underwriting decisions. Our tool comes in handy during Stage 4 enlisted above.
Pre-Inspection reports are prerequisites for insurance carriers before they can draw up an underwritten contract. These reports help the carrier make a fair assessment of the situation. Three scenarios are possible, based on the report:
- Roll Over Cases
The customer shifts from one insurance company to another.
- Break-In Insurance
There are discrepancies in the policy, i.e. break-in policy issuance.
- The vehicle in consideration has external assembled fitments
Fuel fitments like CNG/LPG fitted in vehicle or other accessories such as music systems, navigation panel, rear-end camera. LCD etc. add additional overheads to the underwriting.
Typically, carriers rely on third-party inspection service providers. Choosing the right agency at this point is crucial as the turnaround time determines how fast the carrier can get back to the eager client.
This is where the GeniusPREINSPECT tool enters the scene. It allows carriers to make instant decisions on the insurability of new vehicles using advanced artificial intelligence (AI) damage estimation technology, saving significant processing time and cost.
