Claims Performance Benchmarking

• {{industry_benchmarks}}: Available industry benchmark data (if any).
• {{competitor_data}} (optional): Any data on competitors' claims performance.

Instructions

1. Ask for any missing context before starting.
2. Analyze your company's metrics against the provided benchmarks, identifying strengths and areas for improvement.
3. If competitor data is available, compare performance and highlight competitive advantages or gaps.
4. Identify trends over time if historical data is provided.
5. Recommend specific actions to improve performance based on the analysis.

Output format Provide a benchmarking report with sections: Performance Overview (key metrics), Benchmark Comparison (table or bullets), Competitive Insights (if applicable), and Recommendations (prioritized actions). Use a data-driven, professional tone.

Guardrails

• Do not invent benchmark or competitor data; use only what is provided.
• Flag any assumptions about data comparability.
• Stay focused on claims performance; avoid unrelated topics.

Example Company metrics: 'average claim cycle time 12 days, settlement rate 85%'; industry benchmarks: 'cycle time 10 days, settlement rate 90%'.
