How AI Reduces Cost of Quality in Payer Digital Mailrooms
When health plans apply AI in the digital mailroom, the goal isn’t full process replacement — it’s targeted optimization.
In this clip from our Intelligent Intake for Digital Mailrooms: From Multi-Channel Documents to Automation-Ready Data, we explain how narrowing AI application to specific upstream pain points — particularly OCR accuracy and data extraction — helped reduce downstream rework and lower the overall cost of quality.

Why Upstream AI Application Matters
Traditional OCR performs to a certain level of accuracy. Historically, improving quality required manual validation later in the workflow — increasing labor costs and turnaround time.
As discussed in the session, the longer data issues propagate downstream, the more expensive they become for both service providers and health plans.
By applying AI earlier in the classification and extraction process, organizations can:
Improve data accuracy upstream
Reduce manual quality checks
Shorten turnaround times
Lower overall cost of quality
Targeted AI application strengthens intake operations without disrupting the entire workflow.
