Estimates often arrive as PDFs, so reviewers re-read totals and line items by hand and cannot easily see how an estimate changed between revisions. On Verisk (estimating), the claim record already holds the context this work depends on: estimate totals and lines, revisions and supplements and supporting documents. Without a connection, that context is re-keyed into each downstream tool and drifts from the claim file.
Estimate totals, line items and revisions from connected estimating systems attach to the claim in VIP with the source reference kept. With Verisk, VIP takes in estimate totals and lines, revisions and supplements and supporting documents and writes assignment context back to the claim. Confirm how estimate fields land on the claim, including the identifier used to match.
| Data | Direction | Detail |
|---|---|---|
| Estimate totals and lines | Verisk → VIP | Totals, categories and line detail attach to the claim so review does not start with a PDF. |
| Revisions and supplements | Verisk → VIP | Each revision is kept with its predecessor so movement in the estimate is visible. |
| Supporting documents | Verisk → VIP | Sketches, photos and reports are stored against the claim and tagged. |
| Assignment context | VIP → Verisk | Optional. Claim and assignment identifiers are sent so estimates return to the right file. |
Verisk has an existing integration with VIP. With Verisk, VIP takes in estimate totals and lines, revisions and supplements and supporting documents and writes assignment context back to the claim. Confirm how estimate fields land on the claim, including the identifier used to match.
