Des Moines, IA: [May 21, 2024] – Benekiva, a leading provider of cloud-based claims automation solutions for the insurance industry, today announced a strategic partnership with GovCIO, a rapidly growing provider of advanced technology solutions and digital services to the federal government. Leveraging GovCIO’s expertise alongside Benekiva’s cutting-edge Claims Platform and Portal360, this collaboration aims to enhance efficiency, transparency, and expediency of life claims for veterans and their families, including those covered under VALife, the life insurance program administered by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA).

Our configurable claims platform, alongside our Innovation Gateway, Data Configurator, and flexible API, will play a pivotal role in streamlining the claims process. These tools will enable access to previously inaccessible data and integrate disparate systems, ultimately reducing processing times, eliminating manual errors, and enhancing the efficiency and transparency of veteran life claims. Moreover, with Benekiva Portal360, VALife claimants will have secure and user-friendly access to real-time status updates, fostering greater transparency through the claims process.”
