5 ways StrAIberry helps dental insurance

Dental problems treatment costs a fortune, so dental insurance is essential for all members of society. Most insurance companies do not bear the burden of dental treatment costs because most of the materials and equipment used for treatment are imported, and a lot of money has been spent to prepare them.

High costs and the dentist’s salary create a high payment and coverage price, creating a financial loss for insurance companies.

StrAIberry, as a dental health service application, has provided suitable solutions for dental insurance, which will be discussed further.

Insurance industry problems in dental and oral health

Iran’s insurance industry has experienced prolonged growth due to its traditional and non-competitive structure. However, competition between insurance companies has been created today due to new technologies and market saturation. Especially in the past year, each insurance company has considered a wide variety of products in the product portfolio to solve user treatment problems as much as possible. Technology advancement has brought about any company’s attention to the issues in the insurance field. Oral health problems include the following:
• Fraud
• Patient files
• Assessing the risk and cost of each person

Fraud in the insurance industry

One of the most common problems in the insurance industry is fraud. In global markets, on average, 20% of the cost of insurance requested by users is fraudulent. Due to the weaker insurance supervision in Iran, the percentage of fraud is definitely much higher than this. Even assuming a 20% share of fraud in the losses paid by insurance companies, nearly 7 thousand billion Toman of insurance income is spent annually on paying fraudulent claims.

 

Patient files in insurance industry

One of the most critical problems in Iran’s insurance industry is the non-integrated and digitalized files for each patient, and measures are currently being taken to minimize this problem. Due to the difficulty of transferring existing data to other systems, a large part of the patient’s information is out of the reach of insurance companies because few people take responsibility for moving information to online systems.

 

Assessing risk and cost in dental insurance industry

One of the most critical parameters in the insurance industry is a risk. The insurance company can estimate the required cost by evaluating each person’s risk. It can increase productivity and optimize the cost of services and insurance products for each person by managing its portfolio and expenses. Also, it can increase income and profit for them. All these cases are possible when the insurance can correctly assess the patient’s current condition and predict future needs.

Providing personalized products for each user

Using artificial intelligence and machine learning, the StrAIberry app evaluates the user’s behavior when using and working with it. An analysis of the user’s behavior, the problems he has had in his mouth and teeth, and the routine he carries out daily to care for his mouth and teeth is done and creates valuable information. Insurance companies can use this information to create personalized products for each user.

 

Urging the user to see a dentist before the problem progresses

Since StrAIberry creates a field for registering oral and dental problems in its application, artificial intelligence can recognize the stage the patient is in and, if necessary, warn it to treat the trouble caused to the teeth. See a doctor. This possibility is profitable for the insurance company and the user. Both the user pays less for his treatment, and the insurance needs to return less money to the user.

 

Creating a digital and integrated file of the patient

Perhaps the most important solution provided by StrAIberry is the creation and maintenance of each person’s file. Note that each person’s file includes the general changes of their teeth over time. This means that the insurance specialist will easily find out what problems each tooth has had over time and what treatments have been done on it. This information is provided to the insurance specialist in an understandable form. Therefore, he can know about the person’s current and past situation without needing dentistry knowledge.

 

Eliminate the possibility of fraud

According to the same file available from the individual, the insurance specialist can easily find out about fraud in the user’s payment request. For example, when a person has had a root canal treatment for one of his teeth, he cannot claim a fee for a tooth filling because these two treatments are not performed for the same tooth. Also, by having the history of each individual’s teeth, the insurance specialist can easily evaluate each of the claims received from the individual.

 

Assessing the risk and cost of each person

One of the chief advantages that StrAIberry provides for insurance companies is the evaluation of insurance applicants’ oral and dental health. In this way, at the very beginning of the process of applying for insurance services, the insurer can make an accurate and quick assessment of the individual’s dental history and then, based on the risk of insuring him, offer an adjustable cost to the individual. As a result, the insurance company can create an accurate and intelligent management strategy for its portfolio.
