Litigation costs are climbing and for claims leaders, the real problem isn’t just the expense, it’s the hidden waste. Cost leakage quietly eats into profits through overbilling, missed errors, and inefficient processes.

What’s Cost Leakage (and Why It Matters)?

It’s the unnecessary spend buried in legal workflows, duplicate charges, guideline violations, or simple human oversight. Small issues, repeated across hundreds of claims, can snowball into major losses.

Ignore it, and you risk:

• Higher ALAE
• Slower settlements
• Poor visibility into legal spend
• Compliance headaches

Why It Happens

Most leakage comes down to a few gaps:

• Manual reviews miss things
• Systems lack case-specific context
• Incorrect UTBMS codes
• Billing rules aren’t enforced consistently
• Reviews take too long
• Back up receipt review mismatch
