Australia is home to a well-developed workers’ compensation system. Each state determines the design of its scheme, with some being privately underwritten by insurers and others being state-run schemes. Claims across territories vary by industry, injury and complexity. As such, insurers need systems that can enable quality, efficient handling of claims to facilitate the health of injured parties and get them back to work as quickly as possible. Approximately three years ago, QBE’s Australia Pacific division, like many other insurers, was running what we would describe as a “process-compliant business” when it came to workers’ comp claims. Leadership wanted to do more to eliminate manual processes and take advantage of claims adjusters’ expertise to get the best result for customers and their employees. They knew technology was the key.
