Tego Insurance, a specialist in medical malpractice underwriting for the Australian healthcare sector, has formed a partnership with Five Sigma to leverage its AI-driven claims management platform.
This move aims to modernise and streamline Tego’s claims management processes amid the growing Australian medical malpractice insurance market, which is currently valued at around A$30bn (approximately $20bn).
The expansion of the medical malpractice insurance market in Australia is driven by heightened awareness among healthcare providers and the surging legal costs tied to malpractice lawsuits.
This growth has highlighted the need for sophisticated claims management systems that can manage the increasing volume and more complex claims.
Five Sigma’s platform is designed to automate routine tasks, minimise human error, and expedite claim resolution times.
Its application programming interface framework can integrate with Tego’s existing policy administration systems and payment solutions.
