Insight Service Group (ISG), a national provider of claim investigation and litigation support to the insurance community, and Shift Technology, a provider of AI-driven decision automation and optimization solutions for the global insurance industry, announced the two organizations have entered an industry leading partnership. As a result, insurance carriers, third party administrators and self-insured organizations in the workers’ compensation, and property and casualty markets can better detect, quickly intervene, and mitigate suspicious claim activity through the strategic use of integrated technology and investigation services.
Shift Claims Fraud Detection uses artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning to identify suspicious claims more effectively and accurately assess the associated risk of fraud. Through this partnership, the Shift solution will be integrated with ISG’s market-leading investigation capabilities, which includes the industry’s largest field investigation footprint and a powerful social intelligence platform. The partnership will provide claims organizations a seamless approach to early intervention and timely field investigations to mitigate fraud and expedite claim outcomes.
