The Problem
Several clients were struggling with the handling of incoming, unstructured information — scanned forms, faxed attachments, PDFs, and photos. Someone had to review each item, recognize what it was, index it for filing, and then route it to someone else for handling.
This process led to:
- Delays, backlogs, and data entry errors
- Missing or misfiled documents
- Inconsistent compliance and audit trails
- Denials, underpayments, and higher collection costs
Unstructured data was growing faster than their teams could manage. The more their operations grew, the worse the problem became.
The Solution
We deployed our ActiveXCHANGE Intelligent Gateway to automate the full lifecycle of any document or incoming object— from arrival to action. It was built around the following framework we named the CURE.
Capture
Documents received from fax, email, scanners, and mobile capture for immediate processing. No printing, rescanning, or manual uploads.
Understand
Our AI recognition engine instantly recognized document types (orders, invoices, appeals, authorizations), classified them, and extracted the actionable data. Critical fields — names, dates, IDs, policy numbers, and amounts — all pulled out automatically for validation and routing.
Route
Documents and data are delivered to the right system or queue based on established rules and actionable data. Nothing waits in a generic inbox.
Execute
Automation sequences to reject incomplete documents, initiate validation steps such as preauthorization and insurance verification, or to aggregate supporting documents to form an automated response can be triggered and executed automatically by the incoming item.
