Injury & Care Schemes
Finity’s accident compensation and disability specialists are experts in deeply understanding the dynamics of injury schemes.
Our focus
Rather than just giving you the numbers, we consider the environment and your needs to provide you with practical and real-world recommendations.
Strategic, technical advice for injury & care providers
We provide strategic advice, monitoring solutions and data analytics to insurers, schemes, regulators, government departments and insurers across compulsory third party, workers’ compensation, lifetime care and disability classes.
Finity is the Scheme Actuary to ten government insurers and/or regulators, providing the full suite of actuarial reviews and scheme design. We are the professional services provider of choice for insurers with asbestos-related disease liabilities.
Data analytics & best practice claims management
Our market leading actuarial and analytical consultants can find unique insights that are embedded deep within your scheme to transform your data into actionable business decisions.
We work with injury and care schemes to:
- Develop claims triage models to stream claims into different risk bands aligned with available staff
- Build individual claim models based on the claimants’ characteristics and history
- Identify claims that are at risk of never returning to work and claims that have a high risk of pursuing common law, for targeted intervention from experienced claims
- Benchmark service provider effectiveness and operational outcomes, to improve the value delivered by providers as well as identify those providers who are best at getting injured workers back to work faster.
We look beyond the numbers
