Abstract
According to some embodiments, an insurance document is received at a document conversion system. The received document may be converted to a document image, and document identification data may be assigned to the document image. The assigned document identification data may be automatically matched to (and/or associated with) insurance information. It may then be arranged to provide the document image, the insurance information, and/or the document identification data for review. Subsequent to review, an insurance claim may be processed in accordance with the document image, the insurance information, and/or the document identification data.
