The Lengthy Cost of Implementation
March 14, 2026

legoboardgameWe have seen it time and time again upgrades are needed to be made to claims systems to keep up with the ever changing times; however does it take longer than we expect to see these enhancements actually go live? Within many organizations it is not as simple as “Hey we need this enhancement to keep our claims environment running efficiently” it requires many levels of the organization to come together on both a vertical and horizontal level.  Approval for the upgrade needs to come from management then prioritized within the IT organization, then training needs to be conducted on the user lever.  Before you know it a single enhancement has cost you tens of thousands of dollars and a year and a half to implement.

Wouldn’t it be great to have a platform that integrates every single aspect of your claims environment? Operates as a SaaS model so there are no lengthy implementations and strains on your already exhausted IT department? Make enhancements to your claims system in time that matters to your organization instead of moths or years?

This is exactly what we strive to do and complete on a daily basis for our clients at Acrometis.  We bring your entire claims environment together to be completely integrated, completing a bi-directional flow of data throughout every claims entity.  The way I like to describe us is picture us as the big green Lego board that build upon to have an integrated claims environment.  I am not saying that you need to even change your current system or workflows – we come and put your existing system on steroids to supercharge it.  Best part is it is 100% cloud based, requires no up front capital, and can be up and running in 90 days or less.

The reason that I make these statements is that I have been around this industry long enough to see companies swap out their claims system for a big commercial hardware system, they spend tens on millions of dollars for the system, integrators, third party consultants.  Then there is the internal toll it takes, your IT department is now dedicated to this, projects get pushed back, it takes years to fully integrate and develop.  Next thing you know a year and half later you have what you want, but….you already need enhancements to keep up with the ever changing work comp world.

Make you life and the life of your company easier, create rules and enhancements relative to your company that are ready to go when you are.  Stop putting so much pressure on your IT department to make things happen.  Your front line adjusters need to be adjusting and closing cases not learning need systems and enhancements constantly.  Give your team the tool box they need to be successful without the ginormous cost of implementations that take up your organizations’ time and money.
