Are We Toast?

[sherkk]

Anyone have thoughts about the use of electronic claim filing and outsourcing, sometimes to data transcribers in other countries. Is this the wave of the future.
I spoke with an oldie but goodie not long ago that said Independent Adjusters will soon be a thing of the past.
Some carriers are allowing insureds to submit photo's of damaged property directly to their claims portal.
Can we take this wave of the future and make it work for us as IA's or will we be toast?

You've got to keep up with the times

There are many IA's working "Fast track" claims from their homes on the internet. It's worth a try. We do the foot work and they get the credit. As long as my fee is sufficient I do not complain.

If I can go to Miami or wherever and make an average of $800 per day and pay all my expenses or.........stay at home and work claims out of my home and average $600 per day, I'm hanging in there.
