Simplifying Auto Rental Claims
Monday, May 26th, 2003 AutoInsurance claim adjusters know only too well that it can be extraordinarily time consuming to keep track of an entire rental car transaction from beginning to end. In addition to reserving rental vehicles, obtaining authorizations and billing extensions, and preparing invoices, adjusters must monitor the status of vehicle repairs to determine how long a rental car will be needed. The entire process can be labor intensive, as well as expensive. In the past several years, insurance companies have found that technology can be used to streamline the rental car claim process. Technological advances that enable insurance companies to link directly with the rental car company, via the Internet, to exchange data 24 hours a day save insurers substantial time and money.
