AI-Powered Claims Assessment & Pre-Existing Condition Platform

Processing claims faster, streamlining assessor decisions, and scaling operations without additional headcount

Key Outcomes

01

Assessor empowerment

Intelligent data extraction and dashboard design let assessors focus on decisions, not data entry — tripling throughput per assessor.

02

Scalable without hiring

Automation eliminated the need to hire additional staff as claim volumes grew, fundamentally changing the cost-to-scale equation.

03

Compliance precision

Pre-existing condition assessment logic maintains precise compliance while accelerating the overall claims process.

The Challenge

Manual claims hitting a scalability ceiling

Knose's claims process relied heavily on manual effort — assessors had to read and interpret vet invoices, identify pre-existing conditions, and manually calculate reimbursements before contacting customers.

As claim volumes grew, so did turnaround times and administrative strain. Without automation, the team faced a hard limit on scalability.

Customer expectations for faster reimbursements were rising, and growth required new hires — an unsustainable long-term model.

Manual processing capped assessor capacity and slowed customer response times as volumes grew.

Our Approach

Claims lifecycle mapping to automation design

The Kipanga Insurance Automation Protocol

Kipanga mapped the full claims lifecycle — from customer vet invoice upload to final payment approval. Discovery sessions with operations and assessment teams uncovered key friction points where automation could make the biggest impact.

A secure, serverless platform was built with intelligent data extraction to identify and structure key details like diagnosis codes, treatment types, and policy references.

Flexible rule logic allows business teams to update assessment criteria without code changes.

Phase 01

Claims Discovery

Mapped full claims lifecycle from submission to payment

Phase 02

The Solution

End-to-end claims automation platform

A custom software platform that captures customer submissions via streamlined digital forms, extracts key data from vet invoices using AI, and presents assessors with an intuitive dashboard for rapid decision-making.

Payment calculations and customer communications are automated through built-in workflows and templates. Integration with policy databases enables real-time coverage checks.

The platform was built in partnership with Knose IT and compliance teams, meeting ISO 27001-aligned data security and privacy standards.
