An Unexpected Turn in Recovery

After the ordeal of a car accident or workplace injury, the next hopeful step is often a personal injury claim that you expect will aid in your recovery path. But imagine the shock of finding out your claim has been denied. Even more perplexing—this decision might not have been made by a human, but by an artificial intelligence model. This scenario is becoming increasingly common in the insurance industry, reshaping the outcomes of personal injury claims and leaving policyholders scrambling for advocacy.

Demanding Transparency in AI Processes

With AI systems like UnitedHealth's model, nH Predict, and Cigna’s system growing in usage, it is essential to push for transparency in how these decisions are made. These algorithms are often shrouded in mystery, making it crucial for policyholders and advocacy groups to demand clarity. Understanding how these systems work will empower consumers to challenge decisions made by machines concerning their health and compensation.
