FAQ
How does Nodal work?
Nodal utilizes artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) to proactively identify low and high cost claims shortly after the claim is reported. Nodal will triage low cost claims so they can be automatically closed or paid with limited adjuster action.
What is unstructured data?
Unstructured data is information that has not been organized and arranged according to a pre-set data model. Nodal utilizes text mining and AI to extract under-utilized data from the adjuster notes and claims descriptions.
Is this an out-of-the-box solution?
No. We tailor our solution to your needs. Our team constructs models utilizing a client’s own detailed claim, medical, and text data while leveraging Nodal’s database as support.
Expected savings when implemented?
Our clients are seeing savings between three to 10 percent in claims costs.
What lines of business do you work with?
We work with commercial lines such as workers’ compensation, auto liability, and general liability.
What is AI?
Artificial Intelligence (AI) refers to the ability of a computer to mimic human intelligence and precision. AI has the ability to reason, discover meaning, or learn from past experience (predictive qualities).
What is data mining?
It examines large databases to generate new information. Data mining turns raw, unstructured data into useful information by looking for patterns and anomalies.
How do you streamline high-risk claims?
With claims automation and claims triage, we send high-risk claims to senior adjusters for intervention and cost containment. We identify low risk claims for straight-through processing if possible.
What tools do you provide?
Nodal provides reports on insurance claim trends, automated daily emails for claims triggering specific thresholds, and an interactive dashboard of results that is refreshed daily.
What kind of reporting do you provide?
After integrating your data into our predictive models, we provide a high-level summary output for your review noting insurance claim trends. Also, each quarter, we provide a report that summarizes claims scored to-date with specific focus on model accuracy and ROI.
Do we receive training to use the system?
We include on-site training time with our insurance claims consultants to develop a strategy to address claims identified by Nodal.
How long would it take to set up Nodal on my organization’s IT system?
Nodal is a fully managed software-as-a-service solution—no need for your IT staff to install or manage software. We assemble data from unstructured sources, build predictive models using cutting-edge machine learning techniques, and implement with experienced claims consultants to ensure successful implementation and maximize ROI.
What additional support services do you provide to your customers?
Our team of claims consultants, actuaries, and data scientists continue to support you after implementation. We will continue to monitor model results, track ROI, and act as a resource for any additional needs.
