Why TPAs Should Be Actively Involved in Tech Selection with Their Clients

Technology is no longer just a back-office tool—it’s a competitive differentiator. Clients rely on TPAs not only to handle claims efficiently but also to guide them in selecting and implementing the right Claims Management Software. When TPAs take an active role in technology selection, they position themselves as strategic partners, ensuring long-term success for both parties.
Why Technology Decisions Can’t Be Left to Chance
Choosing the wrong Claims Management System or Third-Party Administration Software can create significant challenges:
- Poor Fit: Generic systems may not align with public entities, risk pools, or self-insured programs.
- Inefficiency: Outdated platforms slow down adjusters, increasing cycle times and costs.
- Compliance Risks: Legacy systems may lack critical oversight features, leaving clients exposed.
Without TPA input, clients may select solutions that meet short-term needs but fail under real-world claims demands.

The results:
