With millions of members in their state, this insurer is a leader in medical insurance. Their large customer base found the insurer’s existing payments system cumbersome and difficult to navigate, which led to a negative impact on customer satisfaction.
 
To solve this critical CX challenge, the insurer needed to rapidly improve their payments experience, with the goal of scaling the same approach across their business nationwide. Working with Endava would help the insurer identify payment gaps, improve the member experience, and build a roadmap to position them as a first-in-class digital insurance payment provider.
