Client Profile
The company is a leading Risk Management and Claims Solutions provider, specializing in the healthcare industry. They offer proactive risk prevention, comprehensive claims management (including Workers’ Compensation and Professional & General Liability), and tailored strategies designed to reduce risk profiles, lower premiums, and ensure a “people-first” approach for their clients’ employees and patients.
The Core Challenge: System Limits and Service Demand
The company’s commitment to high-touch, data-driven risk management was being constrained by existing technology. The challenges included:
- Outdated Core System: The current technology platform was insufficient to handle the complexities of modern claim management and advanced data analytics.
- Inefficient Financial Workflows: The process for managing payments and reconciliation with carriers lacked essential automation, requiring excessive manual intervention and slowing down client service.
- Limited Client Reporting: The reporting capabilities were basic, preventing the company from fully demonstrating the cost-saving and risk-prevention value they provide to their clients.
The client needed a complete digital transformation to secure its future as a market innovator.

2. Core System Implementation and Integration
