Key Takeaways

✦

Supplement every residential and commercial insurance claim, as adjusters often miss crucial items that can only be identified during production or through code requirements.

✦

Consider outsourcing supplementing to specialized companies to avoid the overhead of hiring, training, and managing an internal team, potentially achieving greater efficiency and profit maximization.

✦

Utilize technology like SuppTrax to track claim statuses, communication, and key performance indicators (KPIs) to optimize supplementing processes and ensure accountability.

✦

Prioritize building rapport and personal relationships with desk adjusters, as personalized communication can lead to better claim outcomes and a more positive experience.

✦

Implement a standardized photo checklist for your field team to ensure all necessary evidence is captured, as comprehensive photos are critical for successful supplementing (if it wasn't documented, it didn't happen).

✦

Analyze employee performance within your supplementing process to identify whether speed (days to close) or maximizing claim value (average supplement amount) is more critical for your business goals.

✦

Leverage tools that allow you to group claims by desk adjuster to reduce hold times and increase efficiency, turning multiple calls into a single, productive conversation.
