AI Business Automation
How do you automate insurance claims processing with AI?
Automate claims in four steps: ingest and classify the submission, extract structured data from documents and images, triage by complexity and fraud signal, and settle low-complexity claims straight through while routing the rest to adjusters with a drafted summary. Accuracy gates and sampled human review protect leakage while the straight-through share increases.

Key takeaways
- Document extraction is the foundationStraight-through settlement is limited by how reliably the submission can be read; extraction accuracy is measured per document type before triage is tuned.
- Complexity triage protects leakageLow-value, low-ambiguity claims settle automatically; anything with fraud or coverage ambiguity goes to an adjuster with the evidence assembled.
- Sampled review stays in placeA continuous sample of automated decisions is reviewed by humans, which is what keeps regulators and reinsurers comfortable.
