Background
The current health claims settlement process is manual and time-consuming, presenting challenges at each stage
- Health Claims Exchange Volunteers
- Insurers & TPAs need to digitise uncoded data themselves, relying on manual adjudication, & limited fraud analytics
- Regulators receive delayed & incomplete data
- Patients bear with long waiting periods, minimal communication & transparency
Source:
The IRDAI-NHA Joint Working Group recommended creation and adoption of a Health Claims Platform and standardization of e-Claims and other related documents to enable the ecosystem to move to a low cost paperless regime that allows for innovation. To build this, the first step needed was the creation of open claims standards.
Overview
Inspired by recommendations of the Joint Working Group of NHA and IRDAI (2019), these standards have been developed by 80+ volunteers from across the healthcare ecosystem (including Insurers, Hospitals, TPAs, Insurance Technology players and Think tanks), as part of a transparent, collaborative and open effort anchored by Swasth.
