A substantial portion of all phone calls taken by insurance businesses are billing related. How much time and money does your company spend to answer billing-related phone calls? Most companies probably never maintain this vital statistic and even worse, have no way of tracking their performance.

How much effort and financial resources does it take to implement a new program for your company? More often than not, the critical function of billing and collecting the premiums is usually the last item to be completed with little or no effort invested towards its effectiveness.

BEHIND-THE-SCENES APPROACH

Our commitment to technology combined with unsurpassed customer service operations has enabled us to provide our customers with increased efficiency, savings and a boost to their bottom line. Our behind-the-scenes approach allows your organization to keep its customer affinity without bearing the financial burden of being there.

1. "Invisible to the Consumer" - You maintain customer affinity without losing efficiencies and service levels. Whether its our highly profession customer service department that answers the phone on your behalf, the Internet account access site we maintain for you and your customers or the bills, notices or forms we mail out with name and logo. There is no indication that Input 1 is acting as your TPA.
2. Market Considerations - We can institute and set-up a billing program in as little as 30 days. You no longer have to spend your time in all the wrong places. You know how to underwrite and sell insurance. We know how to bill for and collect the premiums. Our full service outsourcing programs will allow you to implement the latest technology and realize service cost savings immediately.
3. You maintain Control - That's right! Just because you outsource your billing does not mean your company loses control. In fact you gain a better understanding of the trends in your service area. We staticize everything that we provide to you and support this with extensive monthly reporting.
4. Experience - Our operations staff maintains a high level of service with customers and follows the guidelines you set forth for servicing your client base. Through a well-documented plan, we are able to quickly train our staff on the exceptions and procedures required by your company.
5. Earn additional Income - If your agents are responsible for billing the premiums, you may be able to realize additional revenue. Once Input 1 determines the requirements of your billing plan, a billing service fee will be calculated. By charging a markup over this service fee to your customers (a practice followed by virtually every insurance operation) your company can realize a margin on your billing program.
