Subrogation is increasingly seen as an important component of any P&C claims department. Maximizing recoveries is achieved by effectively using all of the necessary tools in the subrogation tool kit. There are specific challenges that independent adjusters face in preparing a file for a successful recovery and we will explore those issues with speakers and a panel discussion. Cycle time is a key performance indicator in a subrogation practice and we will look at strategies for improving cycle times. Some of the recurring themes that come up regularly in handling of subrogated claims including the ACV v. RCV debate and strategies in identifying and instructing experts will also be under the microscope.
