Trusted by Industry Leaders to Secure and Streamline Operations
From Fragmented and Flawed to Fast and Fraud-Proof
The current insurance claims ecosystem is burdened by manual processes, data silos, and a fundamental lack of trust, leading to billions lost in fraud and operational waste. Blockchain offers a paradigm shift.
The Problem: Rampant Inefficiency & Fraud
Manual data entry, endless back-and-forth communication, and siloed systems create a slow, error-prone, and opaque claims process. This environment is a breeding ground for fraudulent claims, which cost the U.S. healthcare system an estimated $68 billion annually.
The Solution: A Single Source of Truth
Blockchain creates a decentralized, immutable, and shared ledger accessible to all permissioned parties—patients, providers, and payers. Smart contracts automatically adjudicate claims based on pre-agreed rules, triggering instant payments and eliminating manual intervention.
The Outcome: Unprecedented ROI
By automating processes and preventing fraud, blockchain can reduce administrative costs by up to 40%. It accelerates settlement times from weeks to hours, improves provider and patient satisfaction, and provides a fully auditable, HIPAA-compliant trail for every transaction.

Real-World Success Stories
Automating Millions of Claims for a Leading Payer
A Fortune 500 health insurer was struggling with high administrative costs and slow reimbursement cycles, leading to provider dissatisfaction. Their legacy systems required extensive manual intervention for claim validation and adjudication, resulting in errors and delays.
Key Challenges:
- Excessive manual processing for complex claims.
- Average settlement time of 28 days.
- High volume of disputes from providers due to processing errors.
- Lack of transparency in the adjudication process.
Our Solution:
We deployed a permissioned Hyperledger Fabric network connecting the insurer with its top 50 provider networks. We developed a suite of smart contracts to automate the adjudication of over 80% of their claim types, integrating directly with their existing financial systems for real-time payments.
