• Reduce manual processes with automatic data transfer between ClaimCenter and VIP Software;
• Automatically create vendor invoices leveraging contracted fee schedules to facilitate accurate, quick payment and prevent late loss cost development; and
• Improve straight-through-processing, leading to reduced operational costs.

VIP Software can also serve as a conduit, connecting multiple systems and further streamlining vendor management processes for insurers.
