NEW YORK, Aug. 1, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Claims experiences are fundamental to every insurer's business, yet many fail to meet basic customer experience (CX) standards. In an industry where insurance is often bought and sold through intermediaries, policyholders typically have few direct interactions with their insurance companies outside of filing a claim. Despite their rarity, claims serve as a critical touchpoint, with significant implications for customer experience and financial performance.
