Each Injured Worker Claim is an Incredibly Complex Array of Information (w/Tomas Vykruta, CEO EvolutionIQ)

Tomas Vykruta is CEO at EvolutionIQ, a claims guidance AI platform for Group & Individual Disability, Workers Compensation and Casualty & Liability that has processed millions of bodily injury claims. Customers include Sunlife Financial, Reliance Standard, Argo, Matrix and Fullscope RMS. Claims officers are dealing with up to 70 injured employment cases a day. EvolutionIQ acts as an expert medical doctor, understanding provider data, procedure codes, and partnering with carrier teams. Instead of using black-box predictions and a numerical score, Evolution uses an explanations framework using examiners' own language to explain why each claim is being referred, avoid using biased information for interpretation, and embed a legal team review in their offering. Tom sees a future where humans are guided by machines, data exponentially grows and every carrier industrializes their processes around these new abilities.  Tom was previously a leader within Google’s Applied Machine Learning organization and Waymo – Google’s autonomous driving technology development company – where he developed a machine learning pipeline predicting behavior based on historical logged drives for Google X's autonomous car.  Follow the Insurtech Leadership Podcast airing weekly hosted by Joshua R.
