Digital solutions in claims management
EMpower is a digital platform designed to improve the customer experience and enable workers, employers, and brokers to easily communicate and transact with EML.
It is a tool that offers a secure, single point of access to all policy and claims information for EML members.
The goal was to design an online web application and deliver self-service capabilities to injured workers, brokers, and employers, across all jurisdictions within which EML currently operates and potentially other business opportunities.
