All 18 Documented Cases
Rework and dispute cost from low first‑pass resolution accuracy
$1.5M–$3M per year per 100,000 claims (assuming 40% of claims incur 15–20% extra handling cost)Low first‑touch or first‑pass resolution in claims causes repeated contacts, rework, adjustments, and dispute handling. Research shows first‑touch resolution around 59% for claims, meaning over 40% require multiple interactions and each extra touchpoint raises processing cost 15–20%.
Poor operational and investment decisions from weak claims metrics
$1M–$5M per year in misallocated labor/technology spend and avoidable backlog clearing costs for a mid‑size carrierWhen organizations lack robust metrics such as claim cycle time, closure ratio, and approval accuracy, they misjudge staffing levels, technology investments, and vendor choices, leading to chronic backlogs or overstaffing. Industry guidance emphasizes these KPIs as essential for detecting inefficiencies and balancing cost, speed, and quality in claims.
Extended claim cycle times delaying settlements and recoveries
$500k–$1.5M per year per $100M reserves (extra interest/opportunity cost plus higher operating cost from longer open files)Average claim cycle times of ~22–24 days for auto and property claims delay both outgoing payments and incoming recoveries (subrogation, reinsurance), tying up working capital and prolonging outstanding liabilities. Digital and AI‑enabled carriers cut processing times by 50–70%, freeing cash faster and reducing reserves.
Overpayment and leakage in claims due to manual, error‑prone processing
$5M–$10M per year per $100M of claims paid (5–10% claims leakage, recurring annually)Insurers systematically overpay or pay invalid claims because manual data entry and fragmented verification create high error rates and weak fraud detection. Industry analyses estimate that 5–10% of claims costs are leakage (overpayments, unnecessary payments, or preventable loss adjustment expenses) driven by poor process controls.
