Company background
AXA is a leading insurer providing retail, health, and P&C insurance products. Part of the global AXA Group, AXA Thailand’s mission is to achieve sustainability and prosperity for its customers through diversified and comprehensive insurance products to reach all of its customer’s needs.
The Challenge
AXA Thailand faced inefficiencies in managing group and individual health claims due to its reliance on a Third-Party Administrator (TPA) model. The existing system struggled to streamline claims processing, provider network management, billing, and reporting, leading to delays, increased costs, and less-than-ideal customer experiences. Manual processes created a backlog of claims, impacting both staff efficiency and overall business performance.
To address these challenges, AXA sought a modern, scalable solution that could be seamlessly integrated within its ecosystem – enhancing operational efficiency while laying the foundation for future improvements.
The Solution
AXA has adopted CoverGo’s claims platform, integrating it within their existing ecosystem to replace the traditional TPA model with an in-house, SaaS-based approach. This transformation enables AXA to process claims digitally, improving efficiency, reducing reliance on third parties, and streamlining operations.
The solution included:
- Claims processing and management – A streamlined process for efficient and accurate claims handling, reducing processing time and errors.
- Provider network and agreement management – A robust system for managing provider networks and agreements, ensuring seamless integration with AXA’s operations.
- Billing and collection – Automated tools that simplify billing and collections, improving transparency and accuracy.
- Advanced reporting – Customizable reporting tools that deliver actionable insights and enhance decision-making.
- Digital provider and claims portal – Hospitals can seamlessly access member information, policy details, and benefit quotas, as well as create and submit claims effortlessly. Meanwhile, AXA claims staff can process claims digitally – including individual and batch creation, settlement, investigation, alert creation, tracking, and document management – while automating key workflows to enhance efficiency.
Beyond claims management, the CoverGo platform lays the foundation for future advancements in AXA’s health ecosystem by offering end-to-end capabilities, from product building and distribution to policy administration. This comprehensive digital transformation has empowered AXA to improve operational efficiency, enhance provider relationships, and set the stage for continued innovation in healthcare insurance.
