Monday, January 5th, 2004 TechnologyAs support for property/casualty legacy systems expires, insurers are targeting claims processing as a key area for technological upgrade. The timing is perfect. Microsoft.Net, a new generation programming model from Microsoft Corporation, is enabling the insurance technology industry to develop powerful new claims processing advancements. New functionality includes greater ease-of-use, Windows-centric screen presentations, remote access, Internet connectivity, constant availability of systems, speed of throughput, scalability and interoperability with claims-related Internet services. For many insurers, upgrading aging claims systems without breaking the IT budget is a primary requirement.
