Sprout.ai aids Covid-19 insurance claim settlements with AI solution

Tony Emms, former CCO at Zurich UK and Sprout.ai advisory board member, says: “This solution is potentially transformational for the health insurance industry.

By circumventing the coding system, with an entirely justified reasoning behind the triage, Sprout.ai has simplified the process for claims handlers. This solution will succeed because it impacts both leakage detection and efficiency gains simultaneously.”
