Pinnacol Assurance To Automate Claims Department With Perceptive Software ECM Solution

Colorado's leading workers' compensation insurer looks to eliminate inefficiencies of manual claims processing and approvals

Perceptive Software, creator of enterprise content management (ECM) products, including ImageNow document management, imaging and workflow, announced recently that Pinnacol Assurance, Colorado's leading workers' compensation insurance provider, will be deploying ImageNow for claims processing and throughout other areas of the company.

Perceptive Software's patented LearnMode technology will allow Pinnacolto integrate ImageNow with its custom-built business systems without disrupting operations. By deploying ImageNow, Pinnacol will eliminate the inefficiencies of manual claims processing, which will allow employees to work more efficiently through the elimination of paper and improved work flow. Documents will be secure and electronically available to authorized staff at any point in the claims process. Single-click access will eliminate the cost and delay of paper copies and distribution.

"Over the last three years, Pinnacol has been slowly custom-building an ECM solution," said Dave Hoffman, associate vice president of application services. "By moving to ImageNow, which has all the functionality the company needs, we can focus on solving business problems rather that building software. Deploying ImageNow throughout the claims area will eliminate inefficiencies and reduce costs. Eventually, we will move all of our current ECM solutions into ImageNow, allowing the entire company to be on a single platform."
