edjuster's virtual claims process enables a highly efficient triage of new claim assignments. Content claims reps can quickly assess each claim to determine if a physical onsite inventory is necessary—often eliminating unnecessary travel time and associated expenses. edjuster representatives can conduct a virtual inventory by video collaboration to determine the overall loss while documenting the lost or damaged items. Additionally, items can be evaluated for cleaning, restoration or repair versus replacement. Inventory photos and additional documentation to verify loss and damage are captured electronically, eliminating the need for onsite visits. The entire contents inventory process can be completed on one screen--safely, simply, and securely—while reducing costs and manual intervention.

"I am pleased with the new level of modernization and the ability of our operational  leadership to adapt so successfully to a much more effective  field claims process in the face of a changed claims landscape. This change in business process underscores our commitment to minimize the pandemic impact to insurers," said Andy Williams, edjuster's CEO. "I'm incredibly proud of our team's ability to offer uninterrupted service and support throughout the most challenging times while remaining focused on innovative technology solutions."
