The insurance carrier experienced considerable delays in collecting dates from claimants that they needed to process their claims, and wanted to avoid claimants calling them for next steps. The carrier relied on contact center employees to manually call claimants to collect information and in some cases, send paper-based forms. Customer experience suffered with this manual process and each claim incurred considerable costs to service with the typical process requiring 6 attempts by phone. On average, it spanned a total of 3 weeks.
The Ushur Customer Experience Automation platform gave the carrier's employees the ability to design and manage customer experience campaigns rather than forcing them to depend on IT teams alone to automate the proactive journey. The Ushur flow builder and no-code capabilities enabled the carrier to automate the gathering of critical dates and to automatically update the claim in their backend systems.
Supercharge your existing IVR systems and future-proof your investments in communication stacks that support customer service agents. Instead of depending on service teams alone who are limited to work hours, single-threaded calls, and overwork, add IVR automation to engage with thousands of customers at once. Liberate customer service agents to on high-touch and high value engagements.
Call deflection via digital messaging channels, like Ushur’s Invisible App, allows you to manage high call volumes. Automated digital channels scale, allowing you to service customers in real-time, reducing the possibility of irate customers and overwhelmed agents.

The Ushur Customer Experience Automation platform enables experiences across all channels and can help bring channels to customer experiences that solutions don't yet have them including voice.
Call deflection cases can vary in complexity and therefore the time it takes to implement. Unlike most digital transformation projects, however, the critical components that Ushur deploys are pre-built and then customized during deployment. As a result, voice-based modernization solutions deploy in weeks - not years.
Ushur is an omni-channel solution designed to optimize customer experiences. The platform can deflect to SMS, email, Invisible App™, Invisible Portal™, and existing solutions already deployed at each client like traditional mobile apps.
What most call centers get wrong is using call deflection as a replacement for engaging with customers, and therefore preventing customers from communicating in their preferred modes. Call deflection only actually improves customer experience when it's used to expand the opportunities and modes of engagement.
Customers tend to call in with similar questions to each other, and for fairly predictable pain points which customer service teams are already enabled to answer. For the questions that include topics like status, sometimes the best answer is the one given proactively. Ushur Customer Experience Automation capabilities make proactively sharing status easy so that customers never have to call a company in the first place.
