Gemini Claims Expert Management Hub - Now Live
Introduction Following two successful phases of market acceptance testing, the market has signed off the delivery of the Gemini Claims Expert Management Solution (provided by Advent Insurance Management). The solution is now available for carriers to use.
Background Gemini is being delivered to:
address the markets lack of data on expert spend (lawyers, loss adjusters, etc.) including what is being spent on experts, where, and with whom?
provide a platform that enables effective expert management and controls to be in place, including on-boarding, ongoing oversight of claims experts, performance monitoring, ToE, rate cards, etc.
The new platform introduces an effective way of managing and contracting with our experts, allowing one submission by experts working on behalf of multiple carriers. The platform also enhances the oversight and intelligence of an experts performance, to enhance customer outcomes. Gemini enables all of this by introducing structured and real-time data, producing MI to allow expert data and spend to be analysed at a carrier and market aggregate level.
Further information on the background, and what has been built can be found in LMA bulletin LMA18-036-LE from 30 July 2018.
