Why claims need a structured file
A claim involves several parties — the client, the broker and the insurer — and a sequence of stages that must be followed in order. When files live in emails or spreadsheets, it becomes hard to know the status of each one. 4insurance keeps each claims file linked to the affected policy and to the client record, so the context stays in one place.
A file linked to the policy
The file is opened from the affected policy. The policy and the client are already linked to it, and you record the details of the event and the current status of the file.
Status, stage by stage
Each file has a status that you update as the claim progresses, from opening to closure. The list of open files shows where each one stands and who needs to be contacted next. The platform does not announce status changes to the client; keeping them informed remains the broker's responsibility.
Team work on the same files
Several team members can work in the same account on the same files, so a colleague can pick up a file and carry on from where it stands.
