Optimization
Copyr i g ht © 2012, SAS Ins t i tu t e Inc . A l l r ights reser ve d .
CLAIMS ANALYTICS ACTIVITY PRIORITIZATION
Problem • Shortage of expert adjusters and subrogation professionals have resulted in
overworked and understaffed claims departments
• Increased claims duration = Higher severity and lower customer satisfaction
Result • Improve allocation of claims based on experience, loss type and workload
• Enhance metrics / KPIs on claims professional performance
• Better allocation of claims to preferred service provider (Body shop repair, property
replacement, medical procedures etc.)

CLAIMS ANALYTICS FRAUD ANALYTICS
Problem • Estimated that 10% of all claims are fraudulent
• Double digit growth in suspicious claims
• Rise in organized fraud & criminal rings
Result • Fraud analytical engine to combat opportunistic and organized fraud.
• Combines a variety of analytical techniques including:
• Business rules
• Predictive modelling
• Anomaly detection
• Social network analysis

CLAIMS ANALYTICS LITIGATION PROPENSITY
Problem • Rising litigation costs
• Claims severity is double when an attorney is involved
Result • Analytics can help determine which claims are likely to result in litigation earlier
within the claims process – even at FNOL
• Identify litigation indicators and prioritize claim for special attention
• Large & exceptional claims
• Unexpected number of medical treatments
• Speedier resolution significantly reducing overall costs of such claims

CLAIMS ANALYTICS RECOVERY OPTIMIZATION
Problem • About 1 in 7 claims are closed with missed subrogation opportunities = $15bn in
US annually
• Reliance on manual process as insurers rely on adjusters to assess whether a paid
claim should be recovered
Result • Running predictive analytics alongside the insurers existing claims process will
help reduce the number missed subrogation claims
• High probability score = high likelihood of recovery
• Low probability score = low chance of recovery and another insurer may look to
recover from you
