01THE ESSENTIALS

What loss run processing outsourcing is.

THE ESSENTIALSLAST UPDATED · JUNE 2026

Loss run processing outsourcing is the delegation of loss history work — ordering and retrieving loss runs from carriers, standardizing them into a common format, and preparing loss summaries and large-loss narratives — to trained teams, run under SOC 2 and NAIC-aligned controls to accuracy, turnaround and cost-per-loss-run targets, so underwriters and brokers see clean, comparable loss histories.

What is it?Loss run processing sourced from the Philippines — ordering, retrieval, standardization and loss summary preparation across carriers, on a compliance-governed 24-hour workflow.
Primary KPI99% data accuracy · 24-hour turnaround · −55% cost per loss run vs. onshore fully-loaded.
Who is this for?Brokers, MGAs, wholesalers and carriers that want clean, standardized loss histories fast for quoting and renewals without scaling in-house staff.

03THE LOSS RUN WORKFLOW · INTERACTIVE

Five carrier formats, one clean history.

A loss run you cannot compare is a risk you cannot price. A disciplined process retrieves, standardizes and summarizes loss history into a single comparable view. Expand each step to see how the team runs it.

FIGURE 1 · THE LOSS RUN WORKFLOW, ORDER TO SUMMARY
STEP 01Order & RequestAcross carriers
Loss runs ordered from each prior and current carrier with the right authorization and policy details — the right request the first time, not a back-and-forth.
STEP 02Retrieval & Follow-upPersistent chase
Carriers and portals worked persistently until the loss run arrives — the relentless follow-up that turns a 50% first-request rate into 79%.
STEP 03StandardizationCommon format
Every carrier format normalized into one consistent structure — claims, dates, status, paid and reserved — so loss histories are finally comparable.
STEP 04Data ValidationChecked & complete
Loss data checked for completeness and consistency across the policy period, with gaps and discrepancies flagged before it reaches an underwriter.
STEP 05Loss Summary & QAUnderwriter-ready
A clean loss summary and large-loss narrative prepared, QA-checked, and packaged so underwriters and brokers act on accurate, decision-ready history.
The loss run workflow runs in five steps: ordering across carriers, persistent retrieval and follow-up, standardization into a common format, data validation for completeness, and a QA-checked loss summary. Because every carrier format is normalized and validated, PITON-Global-sourced loss-run teams reach 99% data accuracy on a 24-hour order-to-summary turnaround, lifting first-request retrieval to 79%.
THE CARRIER OWES YOU THE LOSS RUN. NOBODY SAID THEY’D HURRY.

92% carrier response isn’t luck. It’s a chase clock, run like collections — with the broker-of-record letter loaded before the first order goes out.

The carrier owes the loss run but doesn’t owe it fast, and every stalled order is a quote aging toward a competitor. This is counterparty management: the insured is IA-’s job, the supplier is the field-service desk’s — the carrier is ours.

PORTAL-FIRST, REQUEST-SECOND

Every order routes to the fastest lawful channel per carrier: portal self-service where credentials exist (the retrieval that needs no cooperation at all), structured email where they don’t, phone chase as escalation — with a maintained carrier playbook per market: which desk answers, what format they send, how long they actually take, which carriers require the magic words. The playbook is the 79%: first-request success is mostly knowing each carrier’s door before knocking.

THE CHASE CLOCK, DOCUMENTED

Un-responded orders escalate on a fixed cadence (request → reminder → phone chase → escalation), every touch logged with timestamp and contact — because the difference between 65% and 92% response is the fourth follow-up nobody staffed. Stalled-order dashboards show age-by-carrier, so the pattern carrier surfaces as a pattern, not an anecdote.

THE BOR LETTER, LOADED EARLY

Where the broker of record holds the entitlement, the authorization package travels with the first request, not after the carrier asks — because “we need the BOR letter” is the single most common stall, and it’s a stall you can pre-empt at order time. Entitlement disputes escalate to your desk same-day with the paper trail attached: we exhaust the chase; you invoke the leverage.

THE NON-RESPONSE FILE

Orders that exhaust the clock don’t vanish into a pending queue; they close to your team as documented non-responses — carrier, dates, touches, channel — the file that turns “the carrier never sent it” from an excuse into evidence, usable in the market relationship where it belongs.

THE BUYER’S QUESTIONAsk any loss-run vendor their response rate by carrier and what touch four looks like. A vendor with one blended response number is reporting the market’s weather; a vendor with a per-carrier playbook is changing it.
04WHAT “ONE CLEAN HISTORY” ACTUALLY CONTAINS

Two loss runs with different valuation dates aren’t comparable — they’re two photographs of different days. The schema exists so every history answers the same questions the same way.

“Standardized into a common format” is the entire product. An underwriter doesn’t trust “standardized”; they trust specific fields, consistently populated, comparably valued — so here is what’s in the format.

01
The valuation-date discipline, first.
Every standardized history carries its valuation date per carrier segment, prominently — and multi-carrier merges flag valuation misalignment rather than hiding it, because reserves move, and a 2023-valued history merged silently with a 2026-valued one is a risk picture with a lie in the middle. Where refreshed valuations matter to the quote, re-orders are recommended, not improvised around.
02
The field set, named.
The common format populates what underwriting reads: claim number, loss date, report date, claim status (open/closed — flagged, because open claims are reserves still moving), paid / reserved / incurred split by column (never a blended “total” that hides development), claimant and cause-of-loss coding normalized across carrier vocabularies, and policy-period assignment verified — the field where carrier formats most often disagree and summaries most often mislead.
03
The large-loss narrative, to a template.
Losses above the client’s threshold get the structured narrative: what happened, current status, paid/reserved position, development history — factual assembly to a fixed template, senior-reviewed, so the underwriter reads the same story-shape on every large loss regardless of which carrier’s prose it came from.
04
Completeness, stated — not assumed.
Every summary carries its coverage statement: carriers ordered vs. received, years requested vs. delivered, gaps flagged — because a five-year history missing year three isn’t a shorter history; it’s a different risk, and the underwriter deserves to know which one they’re pricing.
THE PRINCIPLEComparable or worthless. A history that can’t be compared field-for-field against another isn’t a summary — it’s a picture of one day, priced as if it were every day.
ORDERED BEFORE ANYONE ASKED

Your renewal calendar is a loss-run demand forecast. We run the orders off it — so the summary is waiting when the submission starts, not the other way around.

THE RENEWAL SWEEP

90–120 days out, the book’s upcoming renewals generate their loss-run orders automatically: carriers identified from the account file, entitlement packages attached, orders placed and chased on the standard clock — so by submission time, the standardized history is a document that exists, not a dependency that stalls. The metric that proves it: summaries-ready-at-submission rate, reported beside turnaround — the best chase is the one that finished last month.

PEAK-SEASON STAFFING OFF THE SAME CALENDAR

The 1/1 and mid-year renewal clusters are known math — the renewal wall, loss-run-shaped: benches trained ahead of the cluster, the chase clock held through peak, because a loss run that misses the submission window has a turnaround of infinity.

05THE PHILIPPINE LOSS-RUN BENCH

Why brokers run loss-run processing from the Philippines.

The country produces insurance-admin talent at a scale few can match — a deep, compliance-trained, English-fluent talent base with the persistence to follow up carriers and retrieve complete loss histories, at a fraction of onshore cost.

A deep insurance-admin talent pool
Tens of thousands of insurance, finance and admin graduates a year — enough to staff true insurance-admin benches, not just data clerks.
Compliance & negotiation fluency
Training in carrier formats, loss data and standardization, so the work needs oversight, not rework, when it reaches your underwriters.
Controls discipline
A conscientious, customer-first culture that makes structured carrier follow-up and second-pair-of-eyes QA natural.
Round-the-clock contact windows
Follow-the-sun coverage means loss runs are ordered and standardized overnight, so summaries are ready when your office opens — your team arrives to progress that already moved forward.
Cost per loss run
60–70% lower fully-loaded cost than onshore loss-run staff — arbitrage that funds compliance and senior review.
Security & SOC posture
SOC 2 and ISO 27001-aligned facilities with access control built for sensitive policyholder data (PII), carrier loss reports and insured loss histories.
When rework rises month over month, the missing ingredient is cadence, not effort.
06INSIDE THE CADENCE

How fast, standardized loss runs are engineered.

Standardization is engineered into the workflow, not patched after a bad summary. The discipline below is what separates a managed loss-run operation from a basic data-entry desk.

1
Order-first cadence
Orders are worked from day one of submission, not after they queue, so most retrievals complete from a near-final position.
2
Parallel-retrieval cadence
Orders triaged by renewal clock and carrier speed at intake, so the chase works the submission calendar, not the queue’s.
3
Compliance-grade controls
Compliant workflows, completeness QA on every loss run and a complete audit trail keep loss histories audit-ready.
4
Retrieval-tracking tooling
Automated tracking flags stalled carrier orders and enforces follow-up sign-off, so exceptions surface early, not at audit.
5
Compliance & QA review
A senior reviewer signs off on large-loss narratives and discrepancies, so what reaches your underwriters needs review, not redo.
6
Retrieval-completeness discipline
Disciplined retrieval and standardization protect turnaround, avoid re-requests and speed order-to-summary time.
07THE MATH OF A CLEAN LOSS RUN

Where the 7.2× return comes from work done right the first time.

From four streams a per-FTE rate ignores: faster quoting, underwriter capacity freed, rework avoided, and labor arbitrage. A loss run delivered in 24 hours is worth far more than a quote that stalls for a week waiting on it.

THE CHALLENGE

A wholesale broker drowned in loss-run requests across dozens of carriers, each in a different format. Staff chased carriers for days, re-keyed histories by hand, and quoting stalled waiting on clean, comparable loss data — losing deals to faster competitors.

WHAT WE SOURCED

We sourced a Manila loss-run team working in the broker’s systems — ordering loss runs across carriers, persistently following up until they arrived, standardizing every format into one structure, validating completeness, and preparing QA-checked loss summaries.

THE OUTCOME

Order-to-summary turnaround dropped from days to 24 hours, data accuracy reached 99%, and first-request retrieval climbed to 79% — while cost per loss run fell 55%. Underwriters finally quote on clean, comparable histories.

“Clean, comparable loss histories land in hours instead of days. Our underwriters quote faster, we stopped losing deals on speed, and the team isn’t buried in carrier chase calls anymore.”

09WHAT IT COSTS

Three ways to pay — priced to the outcome you want.

No opaque “call us” pricing. Loss-run engagements run on one of three commercial models. Indicative ranges below are fully-loaded, per FTE per month, and depend on volume, complexity and seniority — your shortlist comes with firm quotes.

MODEL 01
Dedicated FTE
$1,400–$2,600 /FTE/mo
An agent or team fenced to your book exclusively. Best when you want control, your own process and predictable cost.
Predictable monthly cost
You own strategy & scripts
Easiest to scale up or down
MODEL 02 · MOST COMMON
Per-loss-run
$8–$35 per loss run
You pay on throughput. Rate flexes with volume and complexity — larger, more complex books sit higher. Aligns the team to your cash, not their hours.
Pay only per processed loss run
Fully outcome-aligned
Ideal for variable / seasonal volume
MODEL 03
Managed outcome
Base + bonus on SLA
A lower platform fee plus a performance bonus tied to data accuracy and turnaround and strict SLAs. The partner owns the target, not just the seats.
Partner owns the outcome
Penalties for missed SLA
Best for steady, large books
Net effect across all three models: cost to serve 50–70% below an onshore team. We size the model to your book — numbers in writing first, commitment second.
10HOW WE DE-RISK IT

Every fear a broker has about outsourcing loss-run work — answered.

Handing your files and customer data to an offshore team is a real risk. Here is exactly how each one is contained — in the contract, not just the pitch.

Data security & policyholder PII
THE RISKA data breach or leaked policyholder PII
How it’s contained — SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 facilities, encrypted access, no policyholder PII in notes, locked-down VDI, and breach liability written into the MSA. Your security team audits before go-live.
Retrieval completeness & stalled orders
THE RISKIncomplete retrieval stalling underwriting
How it’s contained — Compliant workflows, 100% audit logging, QA scoring on completeness as well as outcome, and a retrieval-completeness SLA. Disciplined retrieval QA is the standard, and it is measured.
Continuity & attrition
THE RISKThe team churns and loss-run quality drops
How it’s contained — Named backup agents/specialists, cross-trained benches, documented runbooks, and attrition reported to you monthly. Knowledge lives in the playbook, not one person’s head.
Quality drift
THE RISKPerformance fades after the honeymoon
How it’s contained — SLAs with teeth: data-accuracy, turnaround and retrieval floors with financial penalties for misses, reviewed weekly. Drift shows up on the dashboard before it shows up in your cash.
Hidden cost
THE RISKThe invoice creeps past the quote
How it’s contained — Fully-loaded pricing agreed up front, no surprise pass-throughs, and a single rate card. The model you signed is the model you pay.
Lock-in
THE RISKStuck with a partner that underperforms
How it’s contained — 30-day exit for cause, your data and call records returned in full, and a documented hand-back plan. You are never trapped in an underperforming book.
Prove it on a ring-fenced book first. Every engagement can start as a paid pilot on a single carrier set or region, with success criteria agreed up front. You scale only after retrieval performance is proven on your own loss-run inventory. Scope a pilot
11WHY THE PHILIPPINES — HONESTLY

The Philippines for loss-run processing — and where it isn’t the answer.

We are vendor- and geography-neutral, so here is the straight comparison for insurance servicing work. The Philippines wins on persistence in carrier follow-up and document standardization for US/UK/AU carriers — but not for every scenario.

FACTORPHILIPPINESINDIASOUTH AFRICA
Voice & accent (US/UK/AU)Strongest — neutral, empatheticStrong, more variableExcellent — neutral, strong for UK
Cultural rapport with policyholdersExcellent — persistent, preciseGoodExcellent — Western-aligned
Cost per FTELowLowestHigher
UK / EMEA time-zone fitLimitedLimitedBest — same-day GMT overlap
Scale of talent poolLargestLargestSmaller, faster-growing
Policyholder empathy & communicationDeep, provenDeep, provenGrowing
Our honest take: choose the Philippines for English-language loss-run retrieval and back-office work where product literacy, analytical accuracy and turnaround discipline protect standardized loss histories. Choose South Africa for UK/EMEA-hours books needing same-day GMT overlap; choose India when rock-bottom cost outranks voice nuance. We will tell you when the Philippines is the wrong call.
12RADICAL TRANSPARENCY

We standardize the history. We never interpret the risk — and carrier errors get flagged, never silently fixed.

01
Large-loss narratives are factual assemblies, not underwriting opinions.
We report what the file shows — status, position, development — to the template; risk interpretation, pricing implication, and the quote itself are your underwriters’ licensed judgment. A loss-run vendor editorializing on risk quality is doing your underwriter’s job without your underwriter’s accountability.
02
Carrier discrepancies flag-and-refer — the source document is never quietly “corrected.”
When the carrier’s loss run disagrees with the client’s records — or with itself (the paid figure exceeding the incurred, the closed claim with moving reserves) — the discrepancy is documented and routed with both versions attached. We reconcile presentations; we never overwrite sources, because a standardized history that silently diverges from its carrier source is a document nobody can defend at market. We make the flag high-quality; the resolution authority stays licensed and yours.
03
Entitlement is verified, never assumed.
Loss runs are ordered only where BOR or insured authorization exists on file; an order we can’t lawfully place is declined with the gap named, because retrieval without entitlement isn’t persistence, it’s exposure.
04
Calibration caps per pod.
Carrier-count and format diversity cap the span; renewal peaks ride the calendar-staffed bench (Section 3), never strangers dropped onto an unfamiliar carrier playbook mid-cluster.
A shortlist that includes “no” is the only kind worth having.

THE HISTORY FILE · ENGAGEMENT IL-066 · DISCREPANCY AUDIT ONLY

Discrepancy audit only — 20K standardized loss summaries, re-verified against carrier source. The question under every quote: was the history the underwriter read the history the carrier sent?

CLIENT ENTITY

National wholesale broker, live loss-run operation retained (in-house or incumbent vendor), 20K summaries across 85 carriers in scope. Identity withheld under NDA.

PRE-DEPLOYMENT BASELINE

Years of loss summaries had been built by hand under deadline pressure — re-keyed from PDFs, merged across formats, valuation dates recorded sometimes — and quoted on daily. Nobody had ever re-verified a sample against source, because the source PDFs were filed and the quotes were due. The symptoms were quiet: the account that developed worse than its history suggested, the carrier query about a figure nobody could trace, the renewal where the incumbent’s loss run and the file’s summary told different stories. Every quote priced off those summaries inherited their errors — silently, with authority.

THE INTERVENTION

A blind field-level re-verification — live operations untouched. A stratified sample re-checked against carrier source documents: paid/reserved/incurred figures re-tied, claim statuses re-confirmed, valuation dates recovered and misalignment flagged (Section 2’s discipline applied as the rubric), policy-period assignments re-verified, and merges re-performed. Findings taxonomized: keying errors (the transposed incurred figure — quantified by premium impact), valuation-blind merges (histories combining different valuation dates without flagging — the systematic risk-picture distortion), omissions (claims present in source, absent in summary — the expensive direction), and untraceable figures (summary numbers with no source support — the control finding).

STRATEGIC INSIGHT

The flagship makes histories clean going forward; IL-066 tests the archive every current quote stands on — and it gives the audit family its sixteenth member, completing a quiet trilogy with the unreadable archive and the trial balance: documents trusted because re-verification was nobody’s job. The fourth row is the sharpest finding-type — an untraceable figure isn’t an error, it’s a number with no parent, and a submission built on one is an E&O file waiting for its claim. The buyer’s version of the question closes it: pull ten of your own quoted summaries and re-tie them to carrier source. If you can’t — or won’t — you’ve found the finding without the audit.

19ANSWERED BY OUR PRINCIPALS

What broker and MGA leaders ask before outsourcing loss runs.

In-depth answers to the questions that decide a loss-run engagement — from the principals who run them.

How do you stay compliant in loss run processing?+
Compliant review and QA apply to every order and interaction, validated against carrier and NAIC-aligned rules before it goes out. That keeps loss histories clean and fully defensible, so the summary you deliver never comes at the cost of the broker relationship or a compliance finding.— Ralf Ellspermann, CSO
What does outsourcing insurance operations save us?+
Typically 50 to 70 percent on cost per loss run versus onshore staff, with higher accuracy and faster turnaround. The larger gain is quoting velocity and released capacity — your underwriters concentrate on decisions and relationships while the disciplined daily chase runs offshore.— John Maczynski, CEO
Will you work inside our broker systems (Applied Epic, AMS360, Vertafore)?+
Yes. Teams work natively in your broker management and policy systems — Applied Epic, AMS360, Vertafore, Guidewire and similar — with full audit trails, rather than parallel spreadsheets. Your system of record stays the single source of truth behind every loss summary.— John Maczynski, CEO
How do you protect policyholder data (PII)?+
Delivery happens inside SOC 2 and ISO 27001-aligned environments: role-scoped PII access, no card data in free text, zero local storage, full audit trails. Each interaction writes to the log, and policyholder data never exits the secured perimeter.— Ralf Ellspermann, CSO
Will you actually speed up our loss-run turnaround?+
Yes. Upstream carrier playbooks, persistent chase discipline and correct standardization typically cut turnaround sharply within a quarter. A documented prevention strategy keeps quality high over time. Working the right carriers the right way means fewer errors and faster, cleaner throughput.— Ralf Ellspermann, CSO
How do you handle compliance and controls?+
Through compliant workflows, full audit logging, QA on standardization and narrative accuracy, documented escalation workflows and SOC 2 controls applied consistently. The result is loss-history integrity that satisfies your compliance team and gives you a clean, examinable record behind every order.— John Maczynski, CEO
What loss run processing work can you take on?+
Ordering, carrier retrieval and follow-up, cross-carrier standardization, data validation, large-loss narrative preparation and discrepancy flagging. Oversight and risk interpretation stay with your underwriters; the steady daily execution that moves the loss run runs with ours.— John Maczynski, CEO
Which accounts should we place first?+
Start with high-volume standard retrieval — where upstream carrier-playbook discipline compounds into faster turnaround downstream. Multi-carrier merges and large-loss narratives follow once the chase cadence, compliance controls and QA are proven on the early-stage work.— Ralf Ellspermann, CSO
How quickly can a loss run processing team be live?+
About three to seven weeks, often starting with a paid pilot on a ring-fenced book. No order goes live until scripts, compliance controls and QA are signed off. Accuracy performance is proven on a defined book first, and only then scaled across the full portfolio.— John Maczynski, CEO
How is performance measured?+
Against data accuracy, order-to-summary turnaround, first-request retrieval and cost per loss run, in a live dashboard with weekly reviews. We deliberately never report raw loss-runs-processed counts — a summary delivered fast but wrong is not a result.— Ralf Ellspermann, CSO
