Input management, a critical component in various industries including healthcare and insurance, is evolving with the integration of advanced technologies like the Scanbot SDK.
In a recent post by Scanbot, the firm delved into how it is transforming input management processes, thereby enhancing efficiency and user experience across sectors.
In the realm of input management, the primary goal is to accurately classify, evaluate, and prepare documents for downstream processes. Challenges arise when documents are not correctly classified or when data extraction is unsuccessful, leading to delays and increased operational costs.
Input management encompasses the handling and organization of information that is subsequently used in other business processes. Its effectiveness is pivotal in ensuring that backend systems correctly interpret and respond to user inputs, facilitating seamless human-machine interactions.
Input management plays a significant role in diverse sectors, ranging from technology to finance and manufacturing. In healthcare, it is instrumental in managing patient information, medical records, and billing details, ensuring efficient data entry and quick access to patient history. Similarly, the insurance industry relies on effective input management for processing policy applications, claims, and customer inquiries. The automation of these processes is growing, but the need for manual intervention remains due to poor input quality, which can lead to customer dissatisfaction.
A significant number of documents still require manual processing despite the rise of automated document handling. The Scanbot SDK emerges as a solution, offering high-quality digitization essential for effective Optical Character Recognition (OCR). It features a user-friendly interface for easy smartphone scanning, with automatic cropping and image quality estimation. The SDK supports multiple output formats, making it versatile for various backend systems.
In the insurance sector, processing claims involves multiple steps, including submission via mail or fax, digitization by a third party, and eventual processing by the insurer’s backend solution. This method is not only time-consuming and costly but also depends on external logistics providers. Poor-quality documents can further complicate the process.
The introduction of Scanbot SDK allows insurers to bypass these traditional steps, offering a more efficient and seamless workflow. This not only benefits the insurers by reducing costs and processing time but also enhances the experience for their clients.
