Collaboration eliminates manual processes and reduces administrative overhead by streamlining the claims workflow USING ENCIRCLE
August 8, 2018- (Kitchener, Ontario) - Encircle, a leading provider of real-time documentation, collaboration, and field productivity software for the property and casualty insurance industry, and Torrent Technologies, a Marsh company and a servicing agent for Write Your Own (WYO) carriers and the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP), today announced a technology collaboration to streamline the flood insurance claims process.
Encircle and Torrent Technologies announce a technology collaboration to streamline the flood insurance claims process - eliminating manual processes and reducing overhead.
By combining the Encircle platform with Torrent’s flood platform, Torrent is able to provide WYO carriers, adjusters, and policyholders with exceptional claims handling performance and flexibility while reducing demand on resources, time, and the overall cost of the claims process. With Encircle Link, adjusters are able to quickly engage policyholders through visual collaboration, via smartphone or tablet, without the need to download an app. Photos, details of the loss, and signatures are captured instantly, enabling expeditious payment to the policyholder to be completed in minutes not days. In addition, the technology allows examiners to communicate directly with the policyholder for additional information if needed, expediting both advance and full claims payments.
“Together with Torrent, we are setting a new standard,” said Paul Donald, Co-Founder and CEO, Encircle Inc. “Torrent’s vast experience in handling flood claims has made this collaboration a natural fit. We’re very excited to work with Torrent to redefine the flood claims industry.”
“The combined Encircle and Torrent solution streamlines the claims workflow from start-to-finish regardless of the type or size of loss,” said Ian Macartney, Torrent CEO. “Our clients and claims partners are all looking at ways to streamline the claims process and enhance the customer experience. Torrent’s goal is to provide our clients with options and choice, be it Encircle or technology from any of our claims partners.”
