Aquarium Software Supports CAA Review

Dépèche transmise le 18 mai 2011 par PRNewswire

ALTRINCHAM, England, May 18, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Aquarium Software, the leading claims management software vendor, today announced it fully supported the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) review into its claims handling process, and has identified a range of solutions for the CAA and other organisations who find themselves in need of a state-of-the-art , efficient claims handling system.

The Aquarium statement comes in the wake of the independent review into the CAA claims handling procedures, published last week. The review was undertaken by Walter Merricks, CBE, following the collapse of several large travel operator businesses and concerns surrounding claims taking longer than anticipated to settle.

The review included several recommendations on how the CAA could improve its claims handing procedures. These included simplifying the claim validation process and use of an electronic claims tracking & management system, both of which would speed up the time to settlement. Another key recommendation was the use of modern communications with consumers such as email, text and web-access so claimants were consistently updated on the status of their claim from initial submission through to final settlement. Importantly, it also proposed claimants have the opportunity to provide electronic feedback on settlement, this input being used to further improve the processing of future claims; all things Aquarium's claims management solution takes in its stride.
