Image Library, takes the place of paper files or electronic files at users' facilities. Instead, users simply log onto the Internet, enter their password and the relevant claim number, and can instantly view all images, estimates, administration and vehicle data needed to complete the claims review process. Pathways Image Library, in conjunction with CCC's Pathways Digital Imaging software, reduces traditional photography and related costs, and it eliminates the need to track down paper files and send image files between offices.
Users can view image files from any location, including from the field.
In addition, users at multiple locations can view the same image file simultaneously, facilitating negotiation, and speeding claim settlement. Digital imaging applications are in damage appraisal, audit-reinspection, collision repair, appraiser guidance, catastrophe, underwriting and litigation. Pathways Image Library is the newest component in CCC's Pathways Digital Imaging Solution suite of products that electronically capture, transmit, and store images of vehicle damage and claim-related documents. Other Pathways solutions include Collision Estimating, Quality Advisor, Enterprise Solution and Professional Advantage collision repair management systems. Internet-enabled information transfer is becoming the new standard in business today.
