Insurance - Health & General Claims

DataX partnered with a Singapore-based insurance company to automate health and general claim processing. The client struggled with large volumes of mixed-format documents, including PDFs, scanned files, and handwritten forms, which required extensive manual effort to extract key medical and personal information. DataX developed an AI-powered claim processing engine that automates information extraction, highlights inconsistencies or missing data, and integrates seamlessly into the client’s workflow. The project team included 3 AI Engineers, 2 Backend Developers, and 1 QA Engineer.

Challenges

  • High manual workload due to mixed-format documents, including scanned and handwritten claims.
  • Inconsistent or incomplete data causing delays in internal verification.
  • Long claim processing times, often taking days, impacting customer satisfaction.
  • Need for high accuracy in extracting sensitive personal and medical information.
  • Scalability concerns, as claim volumes increased steadily over time.

What We Did

  • Built an AI document processing engine with full OCR capabilities for PDFs, scanned images, and handwritten forms.
  • Automated key information extraction, including medical details, personal info, and claim-specific fields.
  • Implemented data validation and verification checks to highlight missing or inconsistent information.
  • Integrated the AI engine into the client’s claim workflow, enabling faster approvals and reduced errors.
  • Provided monitoring and reporting tools to track extraction accuracy and operational efficiency.

Key Features

1. AI-Powered Document Extraction
  • Automatically extracts key fields from PDFs, scanned files, and handwritten forms

  • OCR + NLP pipeline for high-accuracy structured data extraction
2. Full Multi-Format Document Support
  • PDF documents
  • Scanned images (JPEG, PNG, TIFF)
  • Handwritten claim forms
  • Multi-page claim files
3. Intelligent Data Validation
  • Flags missing fields, inconsistent values, and incomplete documents
  • Highlights extracted text vs. ground truth for quick human verification
  • Reduces back-and-forth communication with customers
4. Automated Claim Classification
  • Categorizes claim type: health, accident, general insurance, etc.
  • Routes claims to the correct internal workflow
5. Workflow Integration
  • Seamless integration with internal claim systems (CRM, Claims Platform, DMS)
  • Auto-sync extracted data into backend systems for faster processing
6. Accuracy Monitoring Dashboard
  • Real-time accuracy tracking
  • Model performance monitoring
  • Error heatmaps for continuous model improvements

Impact

  • 40–50% reduction in manual effort for claim processing.
  • Claim processing time reduced to under 8 hours, down from multiple days.
  • Data extraction accuracy improved to approximately 90%, reducing errors and rework.
  • Backlog volume reduced by 30–35% within the first quarter.
  • Enhanced operational efficiency and customer satisfaction, while enabling the client to scale claim processing without adding headcount.
