Policybazaar for Business (PBFB), the corporate arm of one of India’s leading online insurance platforms, has officially launched ClaimSetu, a groundbreaking AI-powered solution aimed at transforming the Group Health Insurance (GHI) reimbursement claims process. This innovative engine is designed to alleviate anxiety, simplify procedures, and significantly speed up GHI claims for corporate clients and their millions of employees across India.
ClaimSetu elevates the claims experience by providing quantitative scoring, including insights into claim approval and expected processing. The system is engineered to help employees, HR teams, insurers, and Third-Party Administrators (TPAs) process claims up to 50% faster with enhanced accuracy and greater visibility. Traditionally, GHI reimbursement claims have been plagued by delays due to missing paperwork and a lack of real-time updates. ClaimSetu addresses these challenges head-on by utilizing cutting-edge Artificial Intelligence (AI), Natural Language Processing (NLP), and Optical Character Recognition (OCR) technologies. These technologies reimagine the entire claims journey, from initial document submission to final approval, making it more efficient and transparent.
Sajja Praveen Chowdary, Director, Policybazaar for Business, stated, “Reimbursement claims remain one of the tedious processes of group health insurance. With ClaimSetu, we are working on where the friction is highest, in GHI reimbursements, and building a system that removes ambiguity and empowers users with real-time updates.” He further emphasized, “This is more than automation; it’s about delivering clarity and trust at the most critical moment of the insurance experience.”
ClaimSetu is proudly developed in India, specifically for Indian enterprises, to tackle the unique operational and infrastructural complexities within the country’s corporate health insurance landscape. As India’s first homegrown, AI-led claims engine in the B2B insurance sector, it represents a significant stride in digital innovation, aligning with India’s national vision for technology-driven transformation. The platform automates document reading from various sources like claim forms, pharmacy bills, hospital bills, prescriptions, and discharge summaries. It also intelligently flags missing or incorrect documents in real-time and provides employees with claim insight approval probability based on Policybazaar’s extensive historical claims data. Furthermore, it facilitates intelligent claim routing, assigning claims to appropriate teams based on document completeness, complexity, and estimated assistance. Claims can be submitted through familiar channels such as mobile apps, email, or WhatsApp, with instant alerts for any missing or invalid documents, thereby preventing delays from the outset.
