Examiners are responsible for proactive file management toward final disposition via an effective diary, directly negotiating claims with a claimant or claimant attorney, overseeing defense counsel to ensure effective litigation management with established guidelines and reviewing/approving settlement agreements. Examiners must maintain substantive file notes that document all relevant claim activity. Examiners are responsible for preparing comprehensive and concise reserve authority requests, reinsurance reports, serious loss reports, coverage position letters as well as reports to underwriting and other departments.
    Other Duties and Responsibilities:

    In addition to the essential functions, an examiner is expected to support customer service by responding the same day to phone and email both internally and externally and adhere to established claim service promises. The position may entail completion of special projects.
