What this job is

Claims Triage Officers review new claims as they arrive, gather basic information, and decide how urgent or complex each case is. They route straightforward claims to standard processing queues and flag complicated or time-sensitive ones for senior staff. The work is largely administrative, but it requires sound judgement because a wrong call early in the process can delay a claimant's outcome significantly. Most roles sit inside insurance companies, workers compensation schemes, or government agencies that handle large volumes of claims.
