Partners Life, one of New Zealand’s largest private life and health insurance companies, has become the first insurer to successfully launch medical claims on the FINEOS Platform, as outlined in a new case study.

“FINEOS LISA was configured to address this market, and we are pleased to be able to prove how its capabilities translate to medical claims.”
New Zealanders have a public health care system for their emergency care but may purchase private insurance to cover additional costs and reduce wait times for hospital treatment. In just over a decade, Partners Life had grown from a startup to an award-winning market leader. It sought a software partner with a modern cloud-based claims solution to begin a digital transformation to better serve its customers. It chose FINEOS based on its purpose-built platform, experience and capabilities, among other factors.
Early last year, Partners Life became the first life insurance company in New Zealand to go live on the FINEOS Platform, replacing its legacy system with FINEOS Claims for life, total and permanent disability (TPD), trauma and income protection. The second phase of the project, completed this year, brought the component-based capabilities of FINEOS AdminSuite to medical claims at Partners Life through the market-tested, preconfigured FINEOS Life Insurance Solution Australasia (LISA). FINEOS LISA was created to meet the unique value proposition of the regional market in line with customer needs and within compliance requirements.
