Motor Insurance Claim Process flowchart template
Editable motor insurance claim workflow with swimlanes for Policyholder, Claims Handler, Vehicle Assessor, two decision gates, correction and review loops, and a documented handoff to the next insurance operation.
What the motor insurance claim process flowchart process is
This claims template follows a specific operating record from report vehicle incident to confirm completion and close motor claim. The Policyholder, Claims Handler, Vehicle Assessor, Repairer / Service Provider lanes show who gathers information, who evaluates it, and who owns the final handoff. Adapt the roles and documents to your product and distribution model.
The first gate asks whether vehicle assessment available. An incomplete case goes through arrange inspection or request evidence and returns to validation. The later gate asks whether proposed outcome approved; a failed review goes through refer estimate or valuation discrepancy before the decision is reconsidered. Record the reason at each branch so the next team can reconstruct the outcome.
This is an operational starting point. Coverage terms, authority limits, notices and required records vary by insurer, product and jurisdiction; the diagram does not establish regulatory compliance or decide an individual customer's entitlement.

How it works
Map the actors
Replace the example lanes with the actual teams that perform register fnol and vehicle details, choose repair or total-loss route and authorize repair or settlement. Keep a separate lane for any independent decision owner.
Define the intake check
Specify the information and evidence needed before the Vehicle assessment available? gate can pass. Put the owner of arrange inspection or request evidence on the return loop.
Set the decision authority
Document who may decide proposed outcome approved? and what sends a case through refer estimate or valuation discrepancy. Use your own product terms and authority matrix.
Confirm the handoff
Check the output of authorize repair or settlement against what the receiving team needs to complete confirm completion and close motor claim.
