The Impulse

Max Care and Star Health, major insurance providers, manage vast amounts of medical documents daily. Their need for faster, more accurate data extraction from these documents drove the search for an AI-based solution to streamline operations and improve claims management.

The Challenge

Max Care and Star Health faced several key issues:

Handwritten Notes: Many medical records were handwritten, complicating data extraction.
Terminology Variability: Differences in medical jargon, abbreviations, and writing styles led to inconsistencies in structured data extraction.
Data Privacy: Ensuring compliance with regulations like HIPAA and GDPR was a major concern.
Seamless Integration: The extracted data needed to integrate smoothly with their existing claims processing systems.

Solution Approach

We crafted a customized AI-powered solution to address the unique challenges of medical document extraction:
