Internet Boosts Clms Processing
Sunday, November 25th, 2001 TechnologySoftware vendors are working hard to leverage the technology advantages of the Internet to develop products that increase efficiency and reduce costs associated with insurance claims processing. At Scene Genesis Inc. in Rochester, N.Y., an application originally conceived as a means of sending graphic data over the Internet has developed into a full-blown claims management system, according to Robert Blake, the company’s chief technology officer. The application, called the "SceneAccess.net" claims system, was launched as an application service provider offering in 1999. "It was first built to move pictorial data over the Internet and collect digital images from the field," said Mr. Blake. "Now it’s more of a claims management system," providing damage estimate data on auto claims.
