CLAIMS, RISK MANAGEMENT
Businesswire | April 05, 2023
Majesco, a global leader of cloud insurance platform software for insurance business transformation, today announced a partnership to integrate EvolutionIQ’s AI-powered Claims Guidance platform with Majesco’s suite of disability insurance claims technology solutions. These include Majesco Claims for L&AH and Majesco ClaimVantage Claims for L&H. The integration is part of the Majesco EcoExchange, which is a next-generation marketplace of partner technologies designed to help the insurance industry meet the demands of today’s digital customer.
Closely working with the EvolutionIQ team, the partnership will combine market-leading technologies from both organizations to help insurers transform their claims process, which in turn helps sick and injured claimants recover and return to work faster while reducing claim losses and expenses. Majesco and EvolutionIQ have a number of joint customers using both solutions today. Benefits of the partnership for insurers and TPAs include:
Faster technology deployments and a faster return on investment from integrated solutions.
A more dynamic and responsive claims solution to cost effectively manage and guide examiners and adjusters to the right claim at the right time and deliver excellent claimant experience.
Reduced loss ratios, improved claims processing, reduced claim durations, and more claimants returning to work.
“The insurance industry is at an inflection point as rapid advances in technology are now fundamentally changing the underlying economics of claims handling,” said EvolutionIQ co-founder and Co-CEO Michael Saltzman. “Both Majesco and EvolutionIQ are proven, advanced systems that are already delivering dramatic, measurable results for an array of the industry’s top carriers and TPAs. With this partnership, industry leaders can know and trust that our respective technology solutions are not only transformative, but they are complementary to each other in any environment. By deploying them together, forward-thinking insurers will help many more sick or injured people recover – while simultaneously realizing an impressive ROI.”
EvolutionIQ’s AI-powered Claims Guidance is an entirely new category of software invented by EvolutionIQ that actively monitors every open insurance claim to guide frontline operators to those that require more attention, new actions, or complex decision-making. It uses next-generation machine learning and natural language processing to understand complex bodily injury and recovery like a medical expert and guide examiners and adjusters daily to the right actions on the right claims at the right time to maximize impact. The technology has already led to tens of thousands of sick and injured people getting their lives back on track, with the number increasing every day. Carriers report up to a 35 percent increase in sick or injured people returning to work using EvolutionIQ with those returns happening on average 3.5 months sooner when compared to legacy processes.
“EvolutionIQ with Majesco Claims solutions for the L&AH segment offers our customers and the industry a significant opportunity to transform the claims dynamics for disability and workers compensation,” said Adam Elster, CEO at Majesco. “This partnership aligns with our relentless innovation focus to deliver intelligent, cutting-edge solutions that help our customers manage claims efficiently, control costs to improve profitability, and deliver exceptional customer experiences. We are thrilled to be working with EvolutionIQ to deliver real business value to our customers.”
Majesco Claims for L&AH and Majesco ClaimVantage Claims for L&H are industry recognized as market leading solutions by industry analysts, supporting some of the largest insurers and most demanding claims operations. Majesco solutions help insurers manage and resolve claims faster, exceed customer expectations, manage complex integrated disability and absence management and return to work, and ignite innovation that delivers frictionless and transparent claims experiences. While historically claims operations focused on costs and efficiencies, today insurers must take a holistic customer view including management of complex injury claims to help claimants return to work quicker and safer, creating a new customer experience that is a cornerstone of satisfaction, loyalty, and retention.

RISK MANAGEMENT, INSURANCE TECHNOLOGY
Businesswire | April 11, 2023
Coalition, the world's first Active Insurance provider designed to prevent digital risk before it strikes, today introduced CoalitionAI™, a new initiative to deploy generative AI and large language models to help brokers and businesses protect themselves from cyber risk. U.S.-based brokers and businesses can now access new AI-powered education and chat features, including:
CoalitionAI Broker Copilot: Appointed brokers in the U.S. now have access to the Broker Copilot, a generative AI chatbot embedded into the Coalition broker dashboard that can answer questions about cybersecurity best practices, cyber policy coverage options, and more. The Broker Copilot is trained on publicly-available documents and resources published by Coalition for broker inquiries and education.
CoalitionAI Security Copilot: Businesses using Coalition Control™ – Coalition’s cyber risk assessment and monitoring platform – can now seek and gain details on cyber security vulnerabilities, better understand coverage contingencies, and learn about ways to resolve cyber security issues using the new Security Copilot.
“This new wave of generative AI will unequivocally change the insurance industry and transform the broker experience,” said Joshua Motta, Chief Executive Officer and co-founder at Coalition. “Our Broker Copilot and Security Copilot are just the beginning. Over time the entire Active Insurance experience – from risk selection to active security protection to active response – will all benefit from generative AI that can help reduce the impact of cyber risk.”
The CoalitionAI features released today use a combination of proprietary technology, large language modeling, and generative pre-trained transformers. Coalition plans to introduce additional AI capabilities to support its Active Insurance offerings, including Active Risk Assessment, Active Protection, and Active Response. In the coming months, Coalition brokers and Coalition Control users will gain access to additional AI-driven tools that will strengthen the quoting, underwriting, and incident response experiences.
“AI is already reshaping the cyber risk landscape,” said Tiago Henriques, Coalition’s Vice President of Security Research. “While we are applying our AI expertise to improve the broker and customer experience, we are also focused on keeping up with emerging AI-related vulnerabilities. Part of our commitment to protecting the unprotected is helping our policyholders both understand the risks and reap the benefits of new technologies.”
