Roadzen Inc. (Nasdaq: RDZN) ("Roadzen" or the "Company"), a global
leader in AI at the convergence of insurance and mobility, today
announced that it has been chosen to provide claims processing
using its AI-powered xClaim product for the Indian Government-owned
Oriental Insurance Company Ltd.
Roadzen was selected after an exhaustive review
following a Request for Proposal (RFP) process carried out by the
association of the four Indian Government-owned auto insurance
carriers. Collectively, these four carriers account for
approximately 32% of the market share of the Indian auto insurance
industry and process an estimated 1.4 million auto claims each
year.
The RFP was issued to assess the opportunity to
upgrade to a fully digital infrastructure for claims processing.
OICL processes approximately 200,000 claims annually and is the
first to implement automated allocation of claims to digital
service providers (DSP), effective July 1, 2024. OICL’s assessment
was based on claims turnaround time, reduction of loss ratios, and
improvement in customer experience. Initially, it is estimated that
Roadzen will start processing roughly 25% of the annual claims
volume for OICL.
Roadzen’s xClaim platform provides digital,
touchless, and real-time claims resolution from first notice of
loss through settlement, using computer vision for damage
assessment and AI for triage. By utilizing xClaim, claims can be
settled faster and cheaper without needing in-person loss
assessment. Surveys are conducted remotely using photos, videos, or
real-time streaming from which real-time estimates and approvals
are generated. Once the claim is serviced, instant final reports
are shared with the insurer to complete the claim and make the
payments. The shift to AI-powered claims processing not only
benefits insurers but also policyholders by expediting the claims
process and offering a more transparent and streamlined
experience.
Rohan Malhotra, founder and CEO of Roadzen,
commented, “Being chosen among several contenders for this contract
by Oriental Insurance is a massive validation of our technology. We
believe our platform is firmly at the forefront of next-generation
claims technology for auto carriers; xClaim will make a meaningful
difference in claims processing by not only dramatically increasing
the speed of claims processing but also delivering a simple,
streamlined protocol for customers in a time of need. Our platform
saves money by providing more precise estimates with less overhead
and virtually little opportunity for slippage or fraud. We are
thankful to the team at Oriental Insurance for this partnership and
believe that as insurers all over the world look to digitize their
claims operations, Roadzen will be an incredible partner to them
for implementing a better customer experience.”
Sunita Gupta, General Manager of Motor and
Information Technology at Oriental Insurance, commented,
“Leveraging technology to speed up our claims process to accomplish
approvals in minutes and hours, instead of days and weeks, greatly
enhances customer experience while inducting operating
efficiencies. Partnering with Roadzen has enabled OICL to prevent
fraud and leakages as claims are settled remotely using technology.
xClaim also allows OICL to have full visibility on the claims
process in real-time, enabling its regional and local offices to
better serve their policyholders. By automating the claims
allocation to all four DSPs, OICL is removing the inefficiency and
bias of manual processing in claims allocation. We want to be at
the forefront of digitalization and be a technology-driven company
to serve its customers, intermediaries, and partners, and this
partnership helps us get there.”
