1. A method for claims data analysis, comprising the steps of:
- receiving information associated with a plurality of processed claims;
providing responses into an electronic data processing system in response to a set of queries associated with the information;
selecting a subset of best practices from a predetermined set of best practices associated with a claims handling process;
associating the subset of best practices with the responses;
determining with the electronic data processing system a loss economic opportunity associated with processing the plurality of claims, where the loss economic opportunity includes a cost associated with processing the plurality of claims and is determined based on the responses; and
identifying from the subset of best practices a best practice associated with processing the plurality of claims based on the loss economic opportunity.

Abstract
Methods and systems consistent with the present invention provide for evaluating optimal claim handling. The process includes receiving information associated with claims. Based on the information associated with the claims, responses are provided to a set of queries contained in one or more questionnaires. Based on the responses to the queries, a loss economic opportunity is calculated which is associated with processing the plurality of claims based on the responses. Further, a best practice is determined based on the loss economic opportunity.
