Abstract: A computer system includes a server computer and an insurance claim database. The insurance claim database stores data in electronic format and includes a claim folder that decomposes data of an insurance claim for an insured event into a plurality of levels, the plurality of levels including a policy level, a claim level, a participant level and a line level. The server computer is configured to generate a user interactive interface that interactively displays at least one of the plurality of levels reflecting information related to a policy, the claim, claimants and an insured person in a structured format to a plurality of users, and to allow each of the users to simultaneously interact with one of the plurality of levels to retrieve and enter data for the same insurance claim.

Abstract: A computer program is provided for developing component based software capable of linking insurance-related information. The program includes a data component that stores, retrieves and manipulates data utilizing a plurality of functions. Also provided is a client component that includes an adapter component that transmits and receives data to/from the data component. The client component also includes a business component that serves as a data cache and includes logic for manipulating the data. A controller component is also included which is adapted to handle events generated by a user utilizing the business component to cache data and the adapter component to ultimately persist data to a data repository. In use, the client component is provided with insurance-related information concerning an individual and an event. The user is then able to input information concerning the involvement of the individual in the event. In addition, the user is able to link the individual to the event.
