  • Patent number: 11854089
    Abstract: A driving accident simulation, having a head-wearable user interface (e.g., a head-worn virtual-reality display), may be used to inform a driver of the driver's potential liability under different insurance options. The simulation may determine damages caused by the simulated accident, and identify multiple insurance options and the resulting user liability under each option. The simulation may also be used to assess an insurance adjuster's ability to estimate damages from an accident, by receiving the adjuster's estimate and comparing it to the simulation's own estimate of damages. In some embodiments, the simulation may present a driver with a simulated view from a point of view of another party to the simulated accident.

  • Patent number: 11842405
    Abstract: A central claims adjuster control unit associated with an entity may oversee the assignment of claims cases to claims adjusters. The control unit may designate that a threshold number of cases may be assigned to certain claims adjusters. When new claims cases arrive, the control unit may monitor the workload of each of the claims adjusters and the threshold value assigned to any of the claims adjusters before assigning the case to one of the adjusters. If no adjuster is available, the control unit may store the case(s) in a memory until one of the adjusters becomes available. An additional feature of the control unit includes a user interface for modifying information about claims adjusters, including whether or not a threshold value is associated with them, the value of any associated threshold, and the reassignment of cases from one adjuster to another.

  • Patent number: 11836806
    Abstract: A claim-based capitation model is proposed for handling vehicle repair insurance claims. Rather than determining a detailed estimate of the expected actual cost of repair, the estimate may be determined using a simpler model. For example, the insurance company and a repair facility may agree to following a predictive payment model in which the insurance company pays a fixed predicted capitated amount of money for each repair claim, regardless of the amount of repair work that will be needed. Alternatively, the insurance company may pre-pay a fixed capitated amount for a predicted number of future insurance claims.

  • Publication number: 20230385950
    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to using machine learning algorithms to analyze vehicle operational data associated with a vehicle accident. In some instances, an accident assessment server may receive data indicating that a vehicle was involved in an accident. The accident assessment server may compare the data with other known data, based on machine learning algorithms, to identify whether the accident resulted in a total loss. Responsive to determining that the accident resulted in the total loss, the accident assessment server may request further information regarding the vehicle and may identify a baseline value range for the vehicle. The accident assessment server may request updated information from the owner of the vehicle, identify, based on the updated information, a final value of the vehicle, and may pay the owner of the vehicle an amount corresponding to the final value if the final value is within the baseline value range.
