Freestone Selects PCIS CompVISION for Workers’ Compensation
After a negative experience with implementing a custom platform, FIC selects a system with built-in workflow processes in a 45- to 60-day timeline.
P&C Insurance Systems, Inc. (PCIS), provider of policy administration and claims solutions, has announced that P&C insurer Freestone Insurance Company (FIC) has chosen PCIS CompVISION as its workers’ compensation platform. The system is expected to go live by January 1.
FIC chose to switch platforms after implementing a customized system with a service provider that lacked the resources and expertise to develop a workers’ compensation solution. “I can liken our previous experience of working with a DIY ‘custom’ system with building a house and having my architect hand me a blank sheet of paper, hammer and nails with no guidance,” says Stephen Su, FIC’s chief underwriting officer, in a release.
Implementation of PCIS CompVISION began in early November and is now in the middle of testing. When asked about the tight deadline, Su admits they didn’t have a choice. In order to overcome system issues and stay in business following their previous system implementation, FIC needs to complete the process by January 1.
