Introduction
In the insurance sector, time is everything. Whether it’s settling a claim, responding to policyholder queries, or managing third-party documentation, delays can significantly impact customer satisfaction, operational efficiency and compliance readiness. One of the biggest bottlenecks? Paper-based or fragmented insurance claim files.
When claim forms, supporting documents, KYC papers and approval notes are scattered across paper folders, emails, or shared drives, your team loses precious time searching, validating and routing documents. This not only slows down claim processing but also increases the risk of errors and regulatory penalties.
Enter Digi+ an enterprise-grade digitization platform designed to scan, organize and index insurance claim documents for seamless processing, faster retrieval and real-time status visibility.
The Problem with Paper-Based or Scattered Claim Files
Here are some common pain points insurers face with traditional claim file management:
- Manual Handling Delays: Claims involving physical documents require scanning, sorting and manual entry before processing can even begin.
- Poor Traceability: Lack of a central repository means teams spend hours tracking down missing or misplaced files.
- Increased Errors: Duplicate entries, lost pages and misfiled claim forms can cause incorrect payouts or rejections.
- Slow Approvals: When adjusters, underwriters and legal teams work across silos, approvals can be delayed for days—or even weeks.
- Audit & Compliance Risks: Without a verifiable digital trail, proving claim validity during audits or litigation becomes difficult.
According to a PwC report, over 40% of insurers still struggle with unstructured data, impacting claim turnaround time and compliance accuracy.
How Digi+ Digitizes Insurance Claim Files Efficiently
Digi+ transforms the way insurers manage claim documentation by enabling end-to-end digital ingestion, indexing and tracking. Here's how:
1. High-Speed Scanning & Bulk Ingestion
Digi+ supports bulk digitization of physical claim files using:
- High-speed scanners (50+ pages/min)
- On-site document pickup and scanning teams
- Barcode-based batch separation
- Real-time scanning dashboards
Whether you’re processing health, auto, property, or life insurance claims, Digi+ ensures no file is left behind.
2. Smart Indexing with OCR and Metadata
Each scanned document is processed through AI-powered Optical Character Recognition (OCR) and tagged with intelligent metadata fields like:
- Type of Insurance (e.g., Motor, Health)
- Status (Pending, Approved, Rejected)
Result: You can instantly retrieve any claim document—even by typing the claimant’s name or policy number.
3. Integration with Claim Management Systems
Digi+ integrates seamlessly with core insurance platforms and CRMs, enabling:
- Auto-tagging of documents to existing claims
- Real-time data sync between claim processing and document repository
- API-based search and retrieval from external systems
This ensures your claims team can access all relevant documents without switching platforms.
4. Dashboard-Based Status Tracking
Supervisors and adjusters can monitor:
- Pending vs. completed verifications
- SLA breaches or bottlenecks
- Department-wise document backlog
Proactive visibility helps insurers meet internal deadlines and regulatory turnaround time (TAT) requirements.

All digitized claim files in Digi+ are protected with:
- AES 256-bit encryption (at rest and in transit)
- Role-based access control (RBAC)
- Audit trails for every action
