Frequently Asked Questions

Why use Customer Effort Score (CES) for insurance claims?

CES is ideal for insurance because claims are inherently stressful. Customers don't expect delight - they expect easy, fair resolution. CES measures how much effort was required, which directly predicts loyalty. Low-effort claim experiences increase retention by up to 94%.

When should this survey be sent?

Send immediately after claim resolution (approved or denied). This captures the complete experience while fresh. Some insurers also send mid-process check-ins for long claims, but be careful not to interrupt during active processing.

How do I handle negative feedback on denied claims?

Separate feedback on the outcome from feedback on the process. A denied claim can still have excellent service. Ask specifically about communication, clarity of explanation, and fairness of process - not just satisfaction with the result.

What's a good CES score for insurance claims?

CES typically uses 1-7 scale where lower is better (less effort). Average scores around 3-4 indicate acceptable effort. Below 3 is excellent, above 5 signals serious friction. Track by claim type and channel to identify specific improvement areas.

Should I include questions about claim outcome fairness?

Yes - perceived fairness strongly influences loyalty regardless of outcome. Even declined claims feel better when the decision is explained clearly and feels fair. Include questions about explanation clarity and perceived fairness separately from process satisfaction.

How can claims feedback improve retention?

Claims are the #1 driver of insurance switching. Positive claim experiences increase renewal rates by 20-30%. Use feedback to identify friction points (documentation, communication gaps, delays) and fix systemically. Close the loop with unhappy claimants personally.
