Country Financial (CF) Claims Process for GGR
Overview
We will now handle Country Financial (CF) claims based on the assigned adjuster. Chris Owens has grouped CF adjusters into three categories, and each category requires a specific approach. Vicki will let the AM know if it is category 2 or 3
Category 1: DO NOT SUPPLEMENT (Unless GGR Requests It)
Treat these claims as Final Invoice Only (assigned to Vicki), unless GGR specifically instructs you to supplement for certain items.
Key Rules:
-
No supplement packages or additional approval requests unless directed by GGR.
-
If GGR requests item(s) to supplement, follow their exact instructions.
-
Handle requested items as you would in a Category 2 claim, including the phone & email follow-up steps below.
Category 2: BE VERY CONSERVATIVE
Action Steps for Deal Owners:
Task Estimator:
After Receiving the Revised Estimate:
If the Adjuster Does Not Answer:
If the Adjuster Responds:
If they explain denials: accept the explanation without pushback.
❌ Do NOT request a denial letter for Category 2
If there is an increase: count it as an Additional Increase.
If they ask for more info: do not send anything yet. Instead, submit a Jet Stream to Chris to align on next steps.
Phone & Email Follow-Up Guidelines for Category 2:
Step | Guidance |
Confirm Receipt | Call on Business Day 3 after sending package and ask for the turn around time for review or when we can get the revised estimate If no answer: follow up after 2 days ( no daily calls) |
Follow-Up for Revised Estimate | Call on the date provided If no answer: Leave a polite voicemail + email (follow up after 2 days) |
Escalations | ❌ Do not escalate |
Additional Follow-Ups | ❌ No daily calls or repeated emails
|
Category 3: SUPPLEMENT AS USUAL
Follow CSP’s standard supplement process.
Action Steps for Deal Owners:
Phone & Email Follow-Up Guidelines for Category 3:
Step | Guidance |
Confirm Receipt | Call on Business Day 3 after sending |
Follow-Up for Revised Estimate | Continue following up as needed |
Escalations | ✅ Allowed – follow CSP’s unresponsive adjuster management process |
Additional Follow-Ups | ✅ Continue until a resolution is reached |
Important Reminders
Apply this process to all CF claims that are not Final Invoiced, including those already in the system.
Log the Category in CRM for each CF deal for visibility and tracking.
We can send a nice Thank you email
Service Types:
How You’ll Be Informed:
Vicki will notify the AM if it’s Category 2 or 3.
If it’s Category 1, Vicki will handle it as FI-Only and assign it to herself with a Deal Creation task in Desk.
Documentation in Tasks:
When assigning the claim to the AM, Vicki will write the Category in the “New GGR” task.
The AM should then create a task due in 1 year with the Category info noted for tracking.
