Changing technology is a part of our daily lives at home. We no longer read a newspaper at the table; instead, we scroll through our smartphones. We no longer run to the video store but rather stream our favorite shows and movies. We don’t even need to be home to answer the door anymore. As technology develops and advances in our personal lives, it’s essential we keep pace in our work lives.
The workers’ compensation industry continues to evolve into an ever-growing and more complex arena. Managing the unique needs of each client in this rapidly changing industry can strain aging workflows and processes. For the claims and managed care industry, now is the time to invest in technology to ease the burden of meeting these needs.
One solution to keep pace with the growing demands of our industry is workflow automation. Workflow automation can help automate manual tasks, saving time and labor. Reducing errors and omissions, increasing productivity, and providing valuable insight and data will lead to more efficient solutions and increased profitability. Due to these considerations, now is the time for organizations to invest in technology to enhance their processing platforms.
A survey commissioned by UiPath, INC, an enterprise automation software company, found that 86% of executives surveyed believe automation will enable their employees to focus on more creative work and spend less time on mundane, repetitive, time-consuming tasks.
Workplace automation can be adapted to any workflow. Rules-based logic can be as simple as data entry or as complex as AI-assisted decision-making. These processes can be built around existing standard operating procedures, and the data collected can be used to propose new changes based on identified trends in utilization.
Automation assisted workflow leads to improved business performance, minimized errors, and improved productivity and profitability. As we continue our journey toward digitalization, the importance of evolving our business operations becomes a necessity. Organizations that want to keep pace with changing industry norms need to incorporate technology-based solutions to meet clients’ needs and stay ahead of the competition.
