Documentation & File Notes
What You Do
Document every contact, every decision, every reserve change, every evaluation. The claim file tells the story — and if it goes to litigation or audit, every gap is a problem. You're writing 20-30 file notes per day across your 150+ open files.
How AI Helps
AI-generated file notes from phone call transcripts and recorded statements. Auto-populated activity logs from email correspondence. LLM-assisted narrative writing that drafts evaluation summaries from the adjuster's bullet points.
Technologies
How It Works
The system ingests phone call transcripts and recorded statements as its primary data source. A language model processes the input by identifying relevant context, generating appropriate responses, and structuring the output to match the expected format and domain conventions. The results integrate into the practitioner's existing workflow — presenting recommendations, flags, or automated outputs alongside their normal working context. The analytical notes.
What Changes
The administrative burden of documentation drops by half. Call summaries write themselves. Activity logs populate from email. You spend time on the substantive file notes — evaluations, reserve rationale, settlement authority requests — instead of 'called claimant, left voicemail.'
What Stays
The analytical notes. Your evaluation of liability, your reserve rationale, your recommendation for settlement authority. Those require adjuster judgment and can't be templated.
What To Do Next
This section won't tell you what your numbers should be. It will show you how to find them yourself. Every instruction below produces a real, verifiable result in your organization. No benchmarks, no projections — just the steps to build your own evidence.
Establish Your Baseline
Know where you are before you move
Before adopting AI tools for documentation & file notes, understand your current state.
Without a baseline, you can't measure whether AI actually improved anything. You'll adopt tools without knowing if they're working.
Define Your Measures
What to track and how to calculate it
Time per cycle
How to calculate
Measure how long documentation & file notes takes end-to-end today, then after AI adoption.
Why it matters
The most visible improvement is speed. If AI doesn't save time, question whether it's adding value.
Quality of output
How to calculate
Track error rates, rework frequency, or stakeholder satisfaction scores before and after.
Why it matters
Speed without quality is just faster mistakes. Measure both.
