Mitchell ClaimIQ can provide a clear investigation framework—that can be tailored to your organization’s specifications.
CONSISTENT INVESTIGATION
The biggest challenges facing liability assessment are accuracy and consistency.
Mitchell ClaimIQ™
Mitchell ClaimIQ™ provides an easy-to-use software application that can accelerate great claims outcomes. This flexible, modular solution helps you handle claims better across three critical areas of claims handling—investigation, evaluation and negotiation.
Your specific best practices are embedded into ClaimIQ so that all claims adjusters have access to the same evaluation process.
By focusing on a systematic process that guides adjusters through the various steps of liability assessment, adjusters can more precisely identify comparative negligence situations.
Liability assessment, if performed on a consistent basis, can make a significant impact on your bottom line. But most carriers apply comparative negligence to only 3-5% of all claims files. Contrast this to courtroom outcomes where more than half of all claims involve situations in which there is shared liability. Without clear guidelines, adjusters often pay at 100% of liability, significantly overpaying on claims settlements.

Once negligence is established, ClaimIQ supports a best practice approach to evaluating damages:
DAMAGES EVALUATION
Identify injuries in clear, natural language.
Review medical specials via integration with Mitchell Decision Point® (1st and 3rd party liability claims) or Mitchell SmartAdvisor™ (workers’ compensation claims).
Evaluate general damages using best practice severity factors.
Assess applicable no-fault and/or tort threshold breach factors.
Negotiations can be challenging under the best of circumstances—harder still with hundreds of claims to quickly investigate, evaluate and settle.
ClaimIQ assists adjusters in preparing successful negotiation parameters. The software application can help :
NEGOTIATION
Establish separate evaluation ranges for liability and damage determinations.
Automatically reference and organize all aspects of the claim file into a Negotiation T-Chart that details the strengths and weaknesses of each parties’ case.
Review other parties’ negotiation tactics and settlement track record experience prior to initiating negotiations.
Use management reports to isolate trends for coachable moments to improve negotiation skills.
