Consulting firm Health Strategy Associates recently completed their first annual survey of workers’ compensation claims systems to find out what insurer front-line staff and executives are looking for when considering technology purchases.

To learn more about the company's results, PropertyCasualty360.com spoke with HSA Associate Sandy Blunt, who also is vice president of insurance services at Medata. Formerly, Blunt served as the COO of the Ohio State Workers’ Comp Fund and CEO of the North Dakota State Fund.

In this podcast, Blunt discusses HSA’s survey findings based on information gleaned from interviews conducted with more than 100 respondents, and explains how software providers will have to respond to these concerns to be relevant moving forward. He also analyzes the top tech providers in the space and offers up insights for vendors looking to increase their presence.
